Abosede was diagnosed with osteoarthritis in the right knee in July. The surgeon at Lagos Orthopedic Institute recommended hip replacement surgery, and She is scheduled for October. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $470, and after what my employer's plan will pay we're still $350 short. my daughter has been in and out of Lagos Orthopedic Institute since July. The doctors say osteoarthritis in the right knee will get worse without hip replacement surgery. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $470 is more than we can find. While we wait, Abosede struggles with daily life and can't look after the children alone. 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 4 weeks. During that time Abosede won't be able to look after the children alone, so the costs keep growing. I'll pay the hospital and pharmacy directly and post every receipt in the updates section. Where the $350 goes: • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $270 • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $70 • Post-operative medication: $10 Thanks for being kind about this.
