Clément was diagnosed with a deviated septum causing chronic infections in August. The surgeon at Saint Anne Hospital recommended hip replacement surgery, and He is scheduled for October. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $8,750, and after what my employer's plan will pay we're still $5,250 short.
my husband has been in and out of Saint Anne Hospital since August. The doctors say a deviated septum causing chronic infections will get worse without hip replacement surgery. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $8,750 is more than we can find.
While we wait, Clément struggles with daily life and can't look after the children alone. His family has taken turns caring for him, and I've cut my own work hours to be there.
Recovery is expected to take about 8 weeks. During that time Clément 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 $5,250 goes:
• Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $2,750
• Post-operative medication: $290
• Physiotherapy sessions: $430
• Travel and lodging for the family: $260
• Hospital stay (3 nights): $1,520
I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

best of luck, Maëlle. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Wish I lived closer to Galle so I could bring a meal
Wishing you peace. Gave what I could, wish it was more. I have a 15 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Love from Hubballi.
Hope it all works out. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. We're a small family in Salé but we're thinking of you.
