Help Mutua pay for valve repair surgery at Mukono General Hospital

Mutua was diagnosed with a benign brain tumor in August. The surgeon at Mukono General Hospital recommended valve repair surgery, and He is scheduled for November. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $1,650, and after what my employer's plan will pay we're still $1,000 short. my son has been in and out of Mukono General Hospital since August. The doctors say a benign brain tumor will get worse without valve repair surgery. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $1,650 is more than we can find. While we wait, Mutua struggles with daily life and can't lift anything heavy. 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 12 weeks. During that time Mutua won't be able to lift anything heavy, so the costs keep growing. I'll pay the hospital and pharmacy directly and post every receipt in the updates section. Where the $1,000 goes: • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $360 • Hospital stay (3 nights): $380 • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $55 • Post-operative medication: $35 • Physiotherapy sessions: $105 • Travel and lodging for the family: $65 Glad we found this place.
