"I'm sorry for the Adadevoh's pain" - Patrick Sawyer's widow says

Decontee Sawyer, the widow of late late Liberian,
Patrick Sawyer, the man who brought the deadly
Ebola disease to Nigeria, says she regrets the
death of Doctor Ameyo Adadevor of First
Consultant Hospital, who died of the Ebola virus on
Tuesday August 19th after being infected by
Sawyer.
In an email to Leadership.ng , Mrs Sawyer, who
lives in Minnesota, USA, said she's pained that her
late husband caused so many others so much
pain both in Liberia and Nigeria.
"I share the pains that the family members of
the Nigerian doctor are going through. It is
just a pity that Patrick had to cause this
damage both in Liberia and Nigeria.”

"I want to reach out to them and express
how deeply saddened and sorry I am for
their loss and their pain. I do apologise if my
words have cost anyone who is grieving
more pain. I fall on my knees and ask God
for his healing power for all of those who are
still infected with Ebola. I pray for all of the
families whose loved ones were taken away
by this merciless killer Ebola, especially
those affected by Patrick’s actions.
“Ebola didn’t start with Patrick in Liberia, as
we both know. Ebola was in Liberia from a
traveller from Guinea since February of this
year. The government knew about it and did
nothing. Many Liberians, including me, called
out to the government then to close the
borders. They didn’t do so until one of their
own, Patrick (Sawyer), died in July.
“Many people died before Patrick and their
lives were just as important. That is my
frustration. Ebola didn’t have to go to Nigeria,
Africa’s most populated country, had the
Liberian government taken drastic actions
sooner. I, too, have family members and
friends in Nigeria, and now they are at risk
because of Patrick’s actions.
“In spite of my anger and disappointment
with him, I don’t believe that he did this with
evil intent (I could be wrong). I believe his
actions were that of a desperate man. And
sad for everyone involved, Nigeria was
closer than the U.S. This is just my take on
what he could have been thinking (of course,
I could be wrong).
“My regret is that I was so caught up in my
own pain and frustration, that I neglected to
see the pain of the innocent people both in
Liberia and Nigeria who are affected by
Patrick’s actions. For that, I am deeply
sorry. The last thing I wanted to do was to
cause them pain. It is a pain I know. It is a
pain I don’t want them to have.”
