Help me pay for septoplasty at London Community Hospital
A scheduled septoplasty in October is out of reach without help covering $6,600 of the cost.

In July I was diagnosed with severe cataracts in both eyes. My surgeon at London Community Hospital recommended septoplasty, and I have been placed on the schedule for October. The hospital's financial office gave me a written estimate of $8,250, and after what the government subsidy will pay, I'm still $6,600 short.
Doctors at London Community Hospital told me severe cataracts in both eyes will get worse without septoplasty. I work as a farm laborer, and I have saved what I can, but the estimate of $8,250 is far beyond what I've.
Until the surgery I can't work full days, and my hours as a farm laborer have already been cut. Every week of waiting means more pain and a bigger risk.
Rehabilitation is expected to take about 3 weeks. I'll not be able to stand for more than ten minutes during that time, so this has become a financial emergency as well as a medical one.
I'll pay the hospital and pharmacy directly and post every receipt in the updates section.
Where the $6,600 goes:
• Travel and lodging for the family: $200
• Hospital stay (2 nights): $2,550
• Physiotherapy sessions: $680
• Post-operative medication: $240
• Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $2,930
Glad we found this place.

Wishing you peace, Joyce. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. All the best.
so sorry you're going through this. Your post was clear and honest. I'll check back for the next update. Love from Philadelphia.
Praying for you, Joyce. It takes guts to ask. Well done. We're a small family in Kisumu but we're thinking of you. Blessings
wishing you peace, Joyce. Get well soon. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day.
So sorry you're going through this, Joyce. This could happen to any of us. It's not much but it's yours. God bless.
