A northern Island resident was evacuated to the Belize City Hospital last night as he suffered a fall that apparently caused spinal injuries as he was having difficulties moving his limbs and other body parts. The BATSUB helicopter was called to the island and the injured man was rush out of the island at about 7:30p.m. last night, Monday, February 18.
Mr. Eliphaz Santos, English Teacher at Corozal Community College and previous teacher at San Pedro High School, has been in and out of the hospital for the past two months. So far, he has been diagnosed with leucopenia and thrombocytopenia and will need to undergo further medial treatment and testing. Some of the tests he has to undergo include bone marrow tap, Epstein Barr and cytomegalovirus. Any assistance rendered to Mr. Santos will be greatly appreciated since he has huge medical bills to pay. Thanks for your kind contribution to Mr. Santos.
