Ochieng was diagnosed with gallstones with repeated infections in January. The surgeon at Nakuru Regional Medical Center recommended palate reconstruction surgery, and He is scheduled for April. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $600, and after what the public health scheme will pay we're still $450 short. my son has been in and out of Nakuru Regional Medical Center since January. The doctors say gallstones with repeated infections will get worse without palate reconstruction surgery. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $600 is more than we can find. While we wait, Ochieng 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. The recovery period is expected to take about 10 weeks. During that time Ochieng 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 $450 goes: • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $55 • Travel and lodging for the family: $65 • Hospital stay (3 nights): $330 If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.
