Million was diagnosed with a deviated septum causing chronic infections in March. The surgeon at Hawassa Community Hospital recommended a partial thyroidectomy, and He is scheduled for June. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $860, and after what my insurance will pay we're still $600 short. my son has been in and out of Hawassa Community Hospital since March. The doctors say a deviated septum causing chronic infections will get worse without a partial thyroidectomy. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $860 is more than we can find. While we wait, Million struggles with daily life and can't work a full shift. 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 3 weeks. During that time Million 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 $600 goes: • Travel and lodging for the family: $25 • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $310 • Hospital stay (4 nights): $265 Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot. - Gebre

  • Take care. Hope this works out for you. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money.

    • how is Million doing now?

      • Take care. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. All the best

        • Good luck, Gebre. Hope you get there. After 18 years in logistics I know how hard it's to ask for anything.

          • Hope things get better soon, Gebre. Hope the doctors have good news. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend.
