Melicia Andrews, the Swan Village, Soesdyke-Linden Highway woman who was hospitalised for almost three weeks after she was brutally chopped by her partner following an argument last month, has been discharged from the hospital and is recovering at home.
Her mother, Janet Domingo, told Stabroek News that Andrews was discharged from the Georgetown Public Hospital (GPH) on Sunday afternoon. While Andrews is still experiencing a lot of pain, Domingo said her condition has significantly improved and she can now eat and move on her own.
The attack on Andrews, 31, by her partner, Ian English, which had occurred on November 26, saw her sustaining chops to her neck, hands, feet and head. At the GPH, she underwent a series of surgeries. Three of her fingers were almost severed but doctors were able to save them.
