Six-year-old Jeremiah Gustave who was shot in his head at Charles Street, Charlestown, Georgetown on July 9 remains hospitalised in a critical condition.
Jeremiah’s mother, Keisha Gustave told Stabroek News yesterday that he was removed from the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) of the Georgetown Hospital and transferred to the Paediatric Ward. Jeremiah’s condition remains critical and occasionally requires a ventilator. Keisha further said that he is unable to recognize her. In his critical state, he is only allowed to use strained liquids through a tube that has been inserted into his stomach.
“He can’t do anything for he self. He is using pampers and feeding from a tube. I must give God praise and thanks that he is still alive but his condition is still critical. I got to be strong for him”, she said.
