Amani was diagnosed with a hip fracture that never healed properly in March. The surgeon at Eldoret General Hospital recommended gallbladder removal, and She is scheduled for June. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $400, and after what the public health scheme will pay we're still $300 short. my wife has been in and out of Eldoret General Hospital since March. The doctors say a hip fracture that never healed properly will get worse without gallbladder removal. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $400 is more than we can find. While we wait, Amani struggles with daily life and can't drive. Her family has taken turns caring for her, and I've cut my own work hours to be there. Rehabilitation is expected to take about 4 weeks. During that time Amani won't be able to drive, so the costs keep growing. The money goes straight to the treatment bills, and I'll share the invoices as they're paid so you can see exactly what your gift did. Where the $300 goes: • Physiotherapy sessions: $85 • Post-operative medication: $70 • Travel and lodging for the family: $40 • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $105 You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it. - Onyango
