Janet's a craniotomy can't wait - please help us cover the bill

Janet was diagnosed with a torn ligament that needs reconstruction in August. The surgeon at Mwanza Orthopedic Institute recommended a craniotomy, and She is scheduled for November. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $710, and after what my employer's plan will pay we're still $500 short. my sister has been in and out of Mwanza Orthopedic Institute since August. The doctors say a torn ligament that needs reconstruction will get worse without a craniotomy. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $710 is more than we can find. While we wait, Janet struggles with daily life and can't stand for more than ten minutes. Her family has taken turns caring for her, and I've cut my own work hours to be there. The recovery period is expected to take about 6 weeks. During that time Janet won't be able to stand for more than ten minutes, 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 $500 goes: • Post-operative medication: $45 • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $220 • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $50 • Hospital stay (2 nights): $140 • Travel and lodging for the family: $45 With deep gratitude, Opio
