Help Abosede pay for a partial thyroidectomy at Badagry University Hospital
A scheduled a partial thyroidectomy in February is out of reach without help covering $350 of the cost.
🇳🇬 Lagos, Nigeria430 views
Abosede was diagnosed with severe cataracts in both eyes in December. The surgeon at Badagry University Hospital recommended a partial thyroidectomy, and She is scheduled for February. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $440, and after what my insurance will pay we're still $350 short.
my daughter has been in and out of Badagry University Hospital since December. The doctors say severe cataracts in both eyes will get worse without a partial thyroidectomy. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $440 is more than we can find.
While we wait, Abosede struggles with daily life and can't look after the children alone. 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 Abosede won't be able to look after the children alone, so the costs keep growing.
I'll pay the hospital and pharmacy directly and post every receipt in the updates section.
Where the $350 goes:
• Travel and lodging for the family: $40
• Pre-operative tests and imaging: $90
• Hospital stay (2 nights): $220
Thank you for reading my story.
