Help Oluwaseun pay for septoplasty at Epe General Hospital
A scheduled septoplasty in September is out of reach without help covering $650 of the cost.

Oluwaseun was diagnosed with a large ovarian cyst in June. The surgeon at Epe General Hospital recommended septoplasty, and She is scheduled for September. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $1,100, and after what the government subsidy will pay we're still $650 short.
my mother has been in and out of Epe General Hospital since June. The doctors say a large ovarian cyst will get worse without septoplasty. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $1,100 is more than we can find.
While we wait, Oluwaseun struggles with daily life and can't climb stairs. Her family has taken turns caring for her, and I've cut my own work hours to be there.
Rehabilitation is expected to take about 10 weeks. During that time Oluwaseun won't be able to climb stairs, 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 $650 goes:
• Travel and lodging for the family: $45
• Post-operative medication: $25
• Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $410
• Physiotherapy sessions: $110
• Pre-operative tests and imaging: $60
Thank you so much.
