Daniel was diagnosed with a benign brain tumor in June. The surgeon at Addis Ababa Orthopedic Institute recommended a craniotomy, and He is scheduled for August. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $1,200, and after what my insurance will pay we're still $950 short. my father has been in and out of Addis Ababa Orthopedic Institute since June. The doctors say a benign brain tumor will get worse without a craniotomy. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $1,200 is more than we can find. While we wait, Daniel struggles with daily life and can't work a full shift. His family has taken turns caring for him, and I've cut my own work hours to be there. Rehabilitation is expected to take about 6 weeks. During that time Daniel won't be able to work a full shift, 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 $950 goes: • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $480 • Hospital stay (2 nights): $260 • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $50 • Post-operative medication: $45 • Physiotherapy sessions: $70 • Travel and lodging for the family: $45 Glad we found this place. - Yared
