I have a sum of 135k sitting in my account, this money I have is for my urgent medical condition have been saving for, I have to treat starting from next week it's a knee problem I have been nursing for a while and starting with scan and other bills I don't know how much I might be charged of but I have been advised to come with atleast 100k to start the treatment.

But here's the issue, my jnr brother who has been home for a while due to ASUU strike needs the sum of 99k+ to pay his school fee, their school portal closes on Sunday. I am really confused right now because both my treatment and his school fees are very important, and without the treatment I can't do anything or work.

Had it been I'm healthy, paying his school fee wouldn't be a problem for me. Please I need advise on what steps I can go about this because I'm confused. I really want to help him because we don't have anyone but it's risky for me also because I need to treat myself so I can start hustling again. Thanks

he helped me with my hustle all through dis period I couldn't go out. Though I pay him but yet, this is a very hard situation for me

Does he know your health condition and the pains you go through because of it? If yes he will understand.

He can still go to school if not now later.

You've got to make a choice bro

If you are really the person training your brother in school you can tell him to defy his admission at least for one year so you can treat your self after that he can go back to school and continue from where he stopped. Just simple

Use the money to pay for school fees
You’re left with 35k, so you need 65k
Ask 13 people for 5k

ask who? I don't know any family bruh. Besides I don't even know how to beg for money, I rather work my ass of to get whatever I need but health isn't helping rn

Take care of yourself first.

Where will the 13 people get the 5k to send to him

I am one. You however, cant tell me there are not 13 people who can give a brother a hand on Nairaland.

Dude, don't be too proud to beg.

Go for treatment first

I will take No. 2
If we can, let’s do this

rickleye:

Where the pride come from na
He said he prefers to work for the money than beg people, how is that pride?
You think everyone enjoys begging?

I see no trace of pride in his decision mbok...

Hmmmm .. I wish I can help at the moment but bills plenty on me.

It's best you treat your condition first as health is wealth. your brother can defer his academic session. I know how hard and how difficult it is to disappoint blood but in the end it's everyman for himself and God for us all.

Bro, I’ll be blunt with you. Go treat yourself first. As for your brother school fee, bro, please ditch that for now. Naija school is a scam; your brother has been home for 8months due to strike. The way his text message is composed sed, no bam. Try to stay alive, bro.

All these brothers sef.

You mean your brother stayed at home due to strike for close to a year without having a side hustle to support himself? during my studies, I never missed a chance to work.

I was working after class, on weekend, and during holidays. Your brother must start bringing money and not suffocate you financially. Heaven help those who help themselves. Treat yourself first. You need to be healthy and alive before school.

Your brother should either postpone his studies, or wait till you can afford to pay it for him. But you must remove what is in your eyes first before someone's own. Especially that Nigerian school train people for the past, not the present, and definitely not the future.

honestly I didn't even post this to solicit for funds, but I'm awed as some people are planning to help out. I appreciate ur concern. And as regards my brother, I have been always there for him hence the reason I'm still scared to make him loose something as important as this but my health matters also

when their strike started, I asked him to go learn graphics design which I also paid for. Few months after that I started developing my health complications which he had to stop all he was doing and he started helping me with my business.
