In September I was diagnosed with a deviated septum causing chronic infections. My surgeon at Nakuru Orthopedic Institute recommended laparoscopic endometriosis surgery, and I have been placed on the schedule for November. The hospital's financial office gave me a written estimate of $310, and after what the public health scheme will pay, I'm still $250 short. Doctors at Nakuru Orthopedic Institute told me a deviated septum causing chronic infections will get worse without laparoscopic endometriosis surgery. I work as a market vendor, and I have saved what I can, but the estimate of $310 is far beyond what I've. Until the surgery I can't work full days, and my hours as a market vendor have already been cut. Every week of waiting means more pain and a bigger risk. Recovery is expected to take about 8 weeks. I'll not be able to look after the children alone during that time, so this has become a financial emergency as well as a medical one. 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 $250 goes: • Post-operative medication: $60 • Travel and lodging for the family: $80 • Physiotherapy sessions: $110 I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to. - Ssebuliba
