In September I was diagnosed with a hip fracture that never healed properly. My surgeon at Ogbomosho Community Hospital recommended a craniotomy, and I have been placed on the schedule for December. The hospital's financial office gave me a written estimate of $1,250, and after what our health plan will pay, I'm still $750 short. Doctors at Ogbomosho Community Hospital told me a hip fracture that never healed properly will get worse without a craniotomy. I work as a school bus driver, and I have saved what I can, but the estimate of $1,250 is far beyond what I've. Until the surgery I can't work full days, and my hours as a school bus driver have already been cut. Every week of waiting means more pain and a bigger risk. Rehabilitation is expected to take about 7 weeks. I'll not be able to drive during that time, so this has become a financial emergency as well as a medical one. 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 $750 goes: • Hospital stay (5 nights): $350 • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $110 • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $230 • Travel and lodging for the family: $60 I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to.
