Help me pay for a craniotomy at Gwagwalada Regional Medical Center
A scheduled a craniotomy in April is out of reach without help covering $700 of the cost.
🇳🇬 Nigeria710 views
In December I was diagnosed with a cleft palate needing repair. My surgeon at Gwagwalada Regional Medical Center recommended a craniotomy, and I have been placed on the schedule for April. The hospital's financial office gave me a written estimate of $1,000, and after what my insurance will pay, I'm still $700 short.
Doctors at Gwagwalada Regional Medical Center told me a cleft palate needing repair will get worse without a craniotomy. I work as a school bus driver, and I have saved what I can, but the estimate of $1,000 is far beyond what I've.
Until the surgery I can't work full days, and my hours as a school bus driver have already been cut. Every week of waiting means more pain and a bigger risk.
Rehabilitation is expected to take about 5 weeks. I'll not be able to look after the children alone during that time, so this has become a financial emergency as well as a medical one.
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 $700 goes:
• Pre-operative tests and imaging: $85
• Travel and lodging for the family: $45
• Physiotherapy sessions: $60
• Hospital stay (3 nights): $470
• Post-operative medication: $40
Thank you so much.
