Half-Way Tree
Omar was diagnosed with a benign brain tumor in August. The surgeon at Half-Way Tree University Hospital recommended laparoscopic endometriosis surgery, and He is scheduled for December. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $2,600, and after what the public health scheme will pay we're still $1,550 short. my husband has been in and out of Half-Way Tree University Hospital since August. The doctors say a benign brain tumor will get worse without laparoscopic endometriosis surgery. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $2,600 is more than we can find. While we wait, Omar struggles with daily life and can't stand for more than ten minutes. His family has taken turns caring for him, and I've cut my own work hours to be there. The recovery period is expected to take about 4 weeks. During that time Omar 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 $1,550 goes: • Physiotherapy sessions: $170 • Post-operative medication: $95 • Travel and lodging for the family: $100 • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $1,185 Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly. - Camille

    Sending good thoughts, Camille. This could happen to any of us. Wish I lived closer to Bahir Dar so I could bring a meal. Thinking of Half-Way Tree.
