A Medical team from Georgetown headed into the Region nine area late last evening as part of the Medivac to get Nigel Hughes out after he suffered a heart attack. He was brought to the City this morning and is now a patient at the Caribbean Heart Institute at the Georgetown Hospital undergoing tests.
He fell ill in the area while visiting displaced miners in Marudi.

Reports are that the Local Doctors have been in touch with cardiologists in two Caribbean islands and they have agreed that a surgical procedure to clear the blockage is necessary. They have taken into account his medical history.
Family members appear prepared to make moves to have the Attorney flown out of Guyana for that procedure and other medical care. He has been admitted to the Intensive Care Unit of the Heart Institute where he is said to be very alert and has been talking with his medical team and family members.
