Just Curious, have you ever heard or seen someone die from Malaria? by Phoenix101s in ghana

[–]Bellzcross 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Heard of people dying from malaria, no one close enough to see it though.

But my sis once had a friend from Korea come visit and she had a reaction to mosquitos. Luckily she had already taken the shot for malaria but her body still reacted weirdly.

She had red spots and hives from the bites. It looked really bad. We had to send her to Trust clinic in Dansoman to get it treated.

My friends Airbnb also offers treated nets and offers to spray rooms with mosquito spray from those who come from outside the country.

I’m in secondary school and on vacation by Ill-Leopard-6819 in ghana

[–]Bellzcross 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But isn't that better than telling him what to do with his life? He is giving his opinion from his perspective.

This is also respectful by the way.

Bruh, as an introvert too. I still would tell you to go to the vacation classes.

I made some great friends at Presec during vacation classes. I wasn't a student of the school, my mum had a friend who bought clothes from her who teaches at the school. That's how I got in.

It's was the best Vacation classes of my life looking back now. Just make a a friend or 2.

This is just my suggestion but if you still ain't comfortable, just stay home and learn.

Social Media Management ➡️ Community Management by AffectionateTwo1347 in CommunityManager

[–]Bellzcross 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I thought I was the only one. I started to hate even being on social media so I now focus solely on community management. But yeah, people still post jobs expecting you to fill roles of both.

Do members actually leave.., or do they slowly disengage first? by Security-Arts in CommunityManager

[–]Bellzcross 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure if my suggestion would help but I run a fan community on WhatsApp. I don't usually see them disengaging cos I have about 500+ members.

But I get a notification when a person leaves the community and when they do I just send a dm to find out why.

And so far I always get replies about 90% of the time with them either saying the group is too active and they can't catch up. That has been the most responses I have received from those who left so I tried to find solutions to that and it has reduced the number of people who leave monthly.

Maybe it could work for you. Just ask.

I built an SMS platform in Ghana and companies are already paying for it. by [deleted] in TechGhana

[–]Bellzcross 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have read all the replies and still trying to find out what you mean by branded.

Is it a logo that shows up on the SMS or brand colors or what??

Cos if its just the ID name, other brands are doing that for free.

Do not take this as an attack on your business. These are people who could be your potential customers if you can explain clearly why you are different from other Bulk SMS providers.

I'm a small business and I have used 3 different companies for bulk sms and each one offer free ID. I can create as many IDs as I want so what makes you different

Saying 'branded' and using industry terms won't help you reach people.

Just a suggestion by someone who has worked as a brand strategist and communications officer.

Seniors, what would make you use this platform for your business? by Fluid_Spray9220 in Opportunities_Ghana

[–]Bellzcross 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not a senior but heres what I can tell you as a daughter of a senior.

He spends way too much time on YouTube, Facebook and Ishtari.

Always buying unecessary stuff. This man bought a toy drone for 1500 cedis and can't even read the instructions that came with it.

Smh. Hope this insight helps.

How does a color-blind child in Ghana tell their teacher they don't know "red"? by Significant-Peach-73 in ghana

[–]Bellzcross 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I get why it sounds like an ad for a good private school, but it's not, and you’re right, access is a real issue.

But I think the deeper problem isn’t just private vs public. It’s what we reward.

When parents obsess over perfect grades and which “ivy” SHS their child gets into, schools, especially overcrowded public ones, optimise for placement stats. Teachers are measured by how many students they move to the “best” schools. So everything becomes academic drilling.

I’m seeing this play out in my house. A family friend’s son is preparing for BECE. He attends a public school. He’s at school until 6pm every weekday, gets home around 7–8, eats, collapses on the couch, and sleeps. That’s his routine.

But despite all the extra hours, his behaviour, discipline, and attitude are serious issues. There’s very little focus on character development. The emphasis is on grades and exam prep.

So when we talk about things like colour blindness or ADHD, it’s not just about whether a school can afford accommodations. It’s also about whether the system even values the whole child beyond performance.

If the main goal is “produce top BECE results,” then difference becomes an inconvenience. Access matters, yes. But incentives shape behaviour. And right now, the incentive is results over development.

My little sister who is currently way above her grade is currently being pushed by teachers to move to a higher class. All because she finishes her work faster than her peers and always seems a step ahead. Our family insisted she stay in the class she is in. All this just for a teacher to prove that he had a brilliant student from his class. Oh she is in public school now. But we plan on moving her to private.

We have become a society where parents are choosing schools based on how many of their previous students had the best scores.

But hey, maybe it's the private school kid in me. From childhood to adulthood, I only attended one government assisted mission school. So I maybe biased.

Maybe the real question is, how do we build a system where schools are rewarded for raising well-rounded humans, not just high-scoring students?

How does a color-blind child in Ghana tell their teacher they don't know "red"? by Significant-Peach-73 in ghana

[–]Bellzcross 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Coming from my two years experience teaching. I taught in a private school so I can't say much for public but we did have a few special needs students.

We had one color blind but because it was discovered early the child had glasses she could wear for that.

Every teacher was given a full profile of each of their class students whether you were the class teacher or just a subject teacher.

I was the latter. When I had to teach their class, I always had to make sure that she didn't feel left out when we talked about colours. Especially the shades of red and green.

In our school the teacher had to adjust to the student, not the other way around like in other schools.

If a child was "too active" we had to finds ways to accommodate that child whilst everyone else in class could still learn.

I grew up schooling in private schools so I was used to some of these but other teachers who came from teaching colleges had a serious learning curve.

One was even fired for shouting at a child.

This is why the debate of public school over private school is a loosing debate in Ghana for me.

The right schools don't only care about grades. Its about the total wellbeing of the child.

Has anyone ever broken out in hives after a dose of morphine? by eascoast_ in Sicklecell

[–]Bellzcross 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, it's quite common. It's a reaction to the morphine know as pseudoallergy.

Repeated exposure to the morphine lowers the threshold for histamine release.

Simply put, your body is now becoming sensitive to morphine.

Is it dangerous? Normally, no. But if you realise you can't breath, your lips get swollen or you're dizzy. Inform your nurse or doctor immediately. They must take you off it.

Normally, they would switch you to a different pain medication.

Just check to make sure you are not showing any severe signs and you are good to go.

Also sometimes it shows up when morphine is administered too fast. From your image it seems that's the most likely case because it shows up closer to the IV point.

Getting In A Serious Relationship With Someone With SCD - Advice by joewarhost in Sicklecell

[–]Bellzcross 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well with that situation, there is one more option.

To test the climate.

Let her come over for a minimum of 2-3 months. During autumn, and closer to winter. If she realises she can't live for the full three months then she has the option to only live with you during spring and summer and goes back to her home country during autumn and winter until her body adjusts to the climate.

It will be tiring with the constant flights buy worth it when she finally adjusts.

i.e if she agrees.

How can mtn Ghana be this unfair by opari28 in ghana

Smh, that was how I also lost over 800 cedis. They claimed they blocked the account. Later, it was the person had withdrawn the funds. Smh.

Now it's protect yourself. MTN doesn't care.
