Oluwaseun was diagnosed with a deviated septum causing chronic infections in April. The surgeon at Abuja Orthopedic Institute recommended a partial thyroidectomy, and She is scheduled for July. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $1,200, and after what the government subsidy will pay we're still $850 short. my mother has been in and out of Abuja Orthopedic Institute since April. 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 $1,200 is more than we can find. While we wait, Oluwaseun struggles with daily life and can't drive. Her family has taken turns caring for her, and I've cut my own work hours to be there. Recovery is expected to take about 5 weeks. During that time Oluwaseun won't be able to drive, so the costs keep growing. I'll pay the hospital and pharmacy directly and post every receipt in the updates section. Where the $850 goes: • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $320 • Hospital stay (3 nights): $340 • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $40 • Post-operative medication: $45 • Physiotherapy sessions: $65 • Travel and lodging for the family: $40 Thank you so much. - Ifeoma
