Two months ago my father was suffering from severe leg pains so he consulted a doctor who diagnosed him with "intermittent claudicaton" and scheduled him for an operation.
We had never heard of such a disease, so I paid a visit to the WiRED Centre in Mombasa, where I accessed all the information that I needed to know about this illness. I learned how one gets it, the prevention measures and the required treatment.
This information came in handy because we were now able to know what steps to take, the decisions to make, and what exactly would happen during the operation that my father was soon undergo.
Thank you, WiRED. Because of you our family is better informed now.
