Mukono Municipality Member of Parliament Hon Betty Nambooze Bakireke on Monday was rushed to hospital after she collapsed in her own house after two days to stomach pain.
Nambooze says she started feeling weak on Saturday evening and had to be rushed to Mukono Church hospital.
“On Saturday I was in very high spirits and went out with my brother, son and five of my close friends. We had a wonderful day together but when I reached home I started feeling pangs of pain in the stomach,” she said.
“I was taken to Mukono Church hospital where I was treated so well. By Sunday evening I was feeling much better and discharged.”
Yesterday morning, in the absence of her husband and housemaid, Nambooze says she collapsed and remained unconscious for an hour.
“My husband had taken the children to school and the maid had issues to settle at another school where her children go,” she narrated.
“So I was alone at home. I had intended to pick a drink from the refrigerator down stairs when I collapsed and this is the condition where I was found almost an hour later.”
“The good thing I have received proper care and am in safe hands. All tests don’t point any to anything fatal and in just days I hope to be on my legs. As of now the doctors have just put me on observation.”
