Rotimi was diagnosed with a benign brain tumor in April. The surgeon at Bonny Regional Medical Center recommended valve repair surgery, and He is scheduled for May. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $1,200, and after what our health plan will pay we're still $900 short. my son has been in and out of Bonny Regional Medical Center since April. The doctors say a benign brain tumor will get worse without valve repair surgery. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $1,200 is more than we can find. While we wait, Rotimi 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. Recovery is expected to take about 6 weeks. During that time Rotimi won't be able to work a full shift, so the costs keep growing. I'll pay the hospital and pharmacy directly and post every receipt in the updates section. Where the $900 goes: โ€ข Post-operative medication: $55 โ€ข Hospital stay (2 nights): $210 โ€ข Travel and lodging for the family: $35 โ€ข Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $510 โ€ข Pre-operative tests and imaging: $90 If you're reading this, thank you.
