This is a first person account of Dr. Ada Igonoh's experience with Ebola. She attended to Patrick Sawyer, the first Ebola patient in Nigeria who had flown in from Liberia and subsequently come down with Ebola herself. It's an inspiring read. Her faith and her determination to be a survivor are a testament to her strength of character.

Earlier today, I had posted an article about the importance of staying hydrated to give the body the chance to fight the virus, and Dr Igonoh's account also mentions numerous times her determination to drink and drink to stay hydrated. And survive, she did.
