Ronke was diagnosed with endometriosis requiring surgery in July. The surgeon at Gwagwalada General Hospital recommended spinal decompression surgery, and She is scheduled for October. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $580, and after what my employer's plan will pay we're still $350 short. my sister has been in and out of Gwagwalada General Hospital since July. The doctors say endometriosis requiring surgery will get worse without spinal decompression surgery. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $580 is more than we can find. While we wait, Ronke struggles with daily life and can't work a full shift. 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 3 weeks. During that time Ronke 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 $350 goes: • Hospital stay (5 nights): $240 • Travel and lodging for the family: $40 • Post-operative medication: $70 Glad we found this place. - Okechukwu
