Help Halima pay for ACL reconstruction at Badagry Orthopedic Institute

Halima was diagnosed with an aortic valve defect in April. The surgeon at Badagry Orthopedic Institute recommended ACL reconstruction, and She is scheduled for July. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $2,100, and after what my insurance will pay we're still $1,050 short. my daughter has been in and out of Badagry Orthopedic Institute since April. The doctors say an aortic valve defect will get worse without ACL reconstruction. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $2,100 is more than we can find. While we wait, Halima struggles with daily life and can't work a full shift. Her family has taken turns caring for her, and I've cut my own work hours to be there. Recovery is expected to take about 10 weeks. During that time Halima 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 $1,050 goes: • Hospital stay (4 nights): $540 • Travel and lodging for the family: $35 • Physiotherapy sessions: $105 • Post-operative medication: $20 • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $350 I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support. - Chidinma
