Three-Year-old Girl Detained In Hospital Over Hospital Bill

Three-year-old Joy Blessing. She has been detained at Kenyatta National Hospital over hospital bill.

“I am grateful that my daughter has recovered, but I cannot leave the hospital.

She is very playful and I am afraid she will contract more diseases, ”Ms. Mmochi said, noting that patients with different diseases are forced to share beds at the patient detention centre.

“Sharing of bed is not good for those whose wounds have not healed. I am appealing to the hospital to release my daughter as I look for money to pay them,” said the 24-year-old mother.

“I am a single mother and sole breadwinner.

The longer I am detained here, the worse the situation gets for my family. If they let me go, I’ll be able to get back on my feet and start paying the bill,” said Ms. Mmochi, a hotel attendant.
