Help Okechukwu pay for septoplasty at Badagry Community Hospital

Okechukwu was diagnosed with a thyroid nodule that needs removal in August. The surgeon at Badagry Community Hospital recommended septoplasty, and He is scheduled for November. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $2,000, and after what my insurance will pay we're still $1,000 short. my son has been in and out of Badagry Community Hospital since August. The doctors say a thyroid nodule that needs removal will get worse without septoplasty. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $2,000 is more than we can find. While we wait, Okechukwu struggles with daily life and can't walk without help. 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 7 weeks. During that time Okechukwu won't be able to walk without help, 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 $1,000 goes: • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $290 • Hospital stay (3 nights): $450 • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $50 • Post-operative medication: $35 • Physiotherapy sessions: $100 • Travel and lodging for the family: $75 I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen. - Chiamaka
