Lanre was diagnosed with a hernia that has become strangulated in May. The surgeon at Lagos Regional Medical Center recommended a craniotomy, and He is scheduled for August. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $1,300, and after what our health plan will pay we're still $650 short. my husband has been in and out of Lagos Regional Medical Center since May. The doctors say a hernia that has become strangulated will get worse without a craniotomy. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $1,300 is more than we can find. While we wait, Lanre struggles with daily life and can't climb stairs. His family has taken turns caring for him, and I've cut my own work hours to be there. The recovery period is expected to take about 3 weeks. During that time Lanre won't be able to climb stairs, so the costs keep growing. I'll pay the hospital and pharmacy directly and post every receipt in the updates section. Where the $650 goes: • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $55 • Post-operative medication: $25 • Hospital stay (5 nights): $490 • Physiotherapy sessions: $80 Every share and every dollar helps.
