Sad please people take care of your health doctors and hospitals are not responsible for your health. I find too many young dominicans are dying those days Not doing what they’re supposed to do
Hello and good afternoon my people. First I must offer my condolences to her family for their lost and may her soul rest in eternal peace. Now the Government release a statement to the press and country saying they are postponing certain surgeries because the hospital lacks certain equipment and medication to perform such surgeries. Ms Frampton is an upper middle class person who has the financial ability to travel outside of Dominica for medical care so why she didn’t use it. I have seen and met elected officials from Dominica who travelled to NYC to seek medical care at Mt Sinai Hospital in Manhattan. Maybe it’s time a few of us put some money together and build a private hospital with a Trauma Unit.
That’s a good way to invest in our country and have an impact on the quality of life for our citizens and visitors and also get a return on our investment.
Tony, I hate to say this, but in my opinion, in Dominica, there is no such thing as class, I see bunch of poor people.
Some can eat a little better than others, but when they get sick as in the case of this departed lady, only people finds out every in country except the thieves government survival is somewhat granted while they in government.
They have a place they call Wall House, understand there is another place where they said all lawyers and doctors live there. I don’t see any class in that.
The only people in Dominica making money are the thieves benefiting from the sale of the nation passport.
Lawyers, Doctors, nurse, works for peanuts in our country, I remember a nurse complaining how she walks home in the middle of the night after work because she can’t afford a bloody car!
Dominica do not have first class middle class third, or last class people. If one come to Los Angeles today and decide to buy a house they be an instant millionaire, would give them class status!
Let me clarify this Tony: If you reside in Louisiana, or Ohio, where one can still buy houses for below a hundred thousand dollars: someone move to Los Angeles, where the average house is a over one million dollars. The person makes a down payment of 20% of a million dollars, which equals $200,000.00 dollars.
By the time Escrow closes, the value of that same property increases by about 5%; in what class would you fit that person from Ohio, or Louisiana, who could not afford to to buy that same property in the states of their origin?
Question is this: since the average house in Los Angeles, is over a million dollars, in what class would you say the average person belong!
Boy, the same people living in the more than a million dollar house, some of them cannot fill the gas tank of their car with fuel to go to work to pay the Mortgage.
It’s the same crap, and worst with those people you think are middle class in Dominica! Some fantasied they are in some delusional class but poor!
RIP
I know that my comment might be taken down and taken out of context.
But people are dying and have died all over, , not too long ago a woman who had been in church at Christmas time and New Years went in the hospital and the next day she died at the ICU. ONE OF OUR well known health care and decorated personality died in a country where there’s so many well known Doctors, and specialist are . and health care is more in an advanced stages
Doctor Carrisa Ettienne passed away . Dominica is a little boulder on the planet therefore when it happens here everyone knows and hears , but when It happens in the USA or other bigger metropolitan countries unless you are there you cannot know .
A couple weeks ago, I was thinking about you, about the little moments that we spent together, me as a minor and you as an adult. But you were always kind to me, so much that I still remember those precious moments. Everybody in the family is suddenly leaving, and I don’t know what to say or how to feel. I keep telling myself that I will get the chance to visit again… Unfortunately, things never go as planned. But I will forever love you, our family, and hope to see you again yonder. RIP Cuz.
my condolences to her family and friends. May she rest in peace.
Rest in peace
You rastas pastas,should advise Attorney at Law Gabriel Christian,Judge Dr.Irvin Ander,Dr Emanuel Finn and Dr.Dale Dangleben to open a private hospital in Dominica.Most of the hospitals where they live and work are privately owned.With their expertise nobody will die at the DCFH funeral home.When you and the other UWP acolytes get sick you will go there and not die.Political Jacka.
That is very good advice my brother. But the question is: Will the Government give them permission to build? Remember that would be a direct competition with the status quo and maybe provide effective medical services, which YOU KNOW is lacking in the country; but most of all there will be no kickbacks or underhanded deals!!!
You wrote: “With their expertise nobody will die at the ‘DCFH funeral home’.” This is a very good observation you made in this sentence, THANK YOU FOR THIS SENTENCE.
CONDOLENCES to the family.Her father Ferdinand Frompton taught me at school.
You attended school?
I’m sure you have regrets of boycotting school. Those missed school days are the ones that have shaped your character and made you a feeble-minded, gullible, ignorant imbecile.
It is sad that good people die young. This statement is very true in the untimely passing of this great patriotic daughter of the soil. May her short sojourn of her impeccable and positive lifestyle be a template for most others to emulate.
Most profound condolences to her immediate and extended family, frieds, acquaintances and the whole of Dominica.
I am so saddened by this news it hurts, the Dominica China Funeral Home has claimed another victim, my deepest and heartful condolences to the entire family and friends in the passing of one Dominica’s impactful young sister of the soil, we went to the Grammar School together and ferdina was always destined for greatness, she was bold and not afraid to speak, she had a passion to follow her dad’s footsteps, may you rest in perfect peace my sister. God bless all my fellow Dominicans in these testing and trying times in our nation.
Sad news, Rest in Peace. I’m guessing she couldnt get all the care she needed at the hospital. I guess that’s news to the Minister of Health.
jump high jump low..there is a health and societal problem in dominica…when a leader say’s and i quote..choooo poul..when notification is sent out informing doctors that the princess Margaret hospital is ilequiped for surgery but health minister want to investigate, instead of finding solutions..more will die by simple things that could be prevented..labour..labour..
The daughter of the late, great radio personality, Ferdinand Frampton. May her soul Rest in Peace. Like the late, great Carissa Etienne, her passing has been another surprise.
A warning here about the Greatest Interview. ALONE! When it’s our turn!!
All the temporal things we spend our days doing, planning, collecting , posting are gonna burn up instantaneously when Jesus calls us by name early or late in life to stand before HIM. What drives you? What’s your overpowering ambition? So we must spend time on building things that are worthy and pleasant in the eyes of our Lord. Not ONLY the things pleasing only to humans. The precious things we did for each other and the Lord is what matters NOW ON THAT LAST INTERVIEW. The Spotlight is on her.
How often do WE think about DAT. Let us make that our ambition.
Often! Ferdina I saw your fantastic work, and sparkling personality on Social Media. Your father I knew fairly well must be happy to reunite with you spiritually.
Thanks for your superb contribution to our Dominica. 🇩🇲 SHALOM IN ETERNITY IS MY WISH FOR YOU. 🙏
Well said my brother, most of us don’t realize. That when he call, He don’t accept. Cash or credit card. we must pay that debt.
My deepest sympathy to her entire family. May the Almighty strengthen them at this sad moment. The lord giveth and taketh. May she rest in eternal peace.
Oh my word! Sympathies Patrick my classmate and Mr. Frampton my teacher and all the family and co-workers past and present.
Jesus came to ‘break up the works of the Devil’ including ‘the last enemy death’. (1 John 3:8; 1 Cor 15:26)
So sad to hear about Ms Frampton’s sudden death. Deepest condolences to her family. She was a positive inspiration to many and will be dearly missed.
DCFH was supposed to be
Dominica China Friendship Hospital
It should now be called
Dominica China Funeral Home
I totally agree my brother, well said
You referring government shiny object as a morgue? Rasta, you are outrageously spot on. You go in there with a broken toenail, and come out with one leg amputated.
Rest in peace phenomenal woman
How many more will this pit stop to a funeral home take? We have very professional nurses and doctors in Dominica, but not even Einstein could have succeeded without the necessary tools and equipment!!!
May the sister’s family morn in peace, as we all are saddened by this, our tremendous loss. But mostly, may her soul rest in perpetual and eternal peace with our Father.
Thank God she was with, and amongst us.
It is sad to see someone pass at such a young age.
RIP….
Zandolie; the medical establishment are to blame for the demised (passing) of this young lady the late Ferdina!
I am not going to go into details, but based on some nasty detail comments about the late, circulating as placed on the Internet by some horrible woman working at the Dominica butcher the Chines Butcher-shop they call hospital, if what I read is true, whatever the condition, it could be treated; its a common sickness in both female and male.
The is nothing she could have done to prevent her condition except going to a hospital where if the doctors were properly trained, they could have treated her!
As a matter of fact I know Dominican born doctors here in the United States, whom have successfully treated such illness even when they were in intern!
Roosevelt sold Dominica, to the Chines, quacks; they are in the country actually killing our people, while the Roosevelt Skerrit and his yellow tub of lard wife Melisa fly’s out of the country for medical treatment.
Y’all better name a street after this Goddess or something. Please don’t undervalue her contribution to Dominica.
Waw! This is indeed sad news, if true. Speechless. So much to offer, so much hope. I can certainly support – in cash and in kind – a gesture memorializing Ferdines. A genuine patriot. RIEP, Ferdines.
Is this real news? Am not dreaming..
May the soul rest in internal peace,
OMG sorry yo be so dramatic, but I almist fell off my chair. So sorry to hear. My condolences to all of her family and friends….smh
