Gloria was diagnosed with a benign brain tumor in May. The surgeon at Leicester Orthopedic Institute recommended laparoscopic endometriosis surgery, and She is scheduled for July. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $7,500, and after what the public health scheme will pay we're still $5,600 short. my mother has been in and out of Leicester Orthopedic Institute since May. The doctors say a benign brain tumor will get worse without laparoscopic endometriosis surgery. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $7,500 is more than we can find. While we wait, Gloria 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 8 weeks. During that time Gloria 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 $5,600 goes: • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $2,800 • Hospital stay (3 nights): $1,250 • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $430 • Post-operative medication: $270 • Physiotherapy sessions: $650 • Travel and lodging for the family: $200 Thank you so much.

        Hope things get better soon. Shared this with my family. Wish I lived closer to Ikeja so I could bring a meal. Thinking of Leicester.
