Henry was diagnosed with endometriosis requiring surgery in March. The surgeon at Nsukka University Hospital recommended septoplasty, and He is scheduled for May. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $750, and after what my employer's plan will pay we're still $600 short. my father has been in and out of Nsukka University Hospital since March. The doctors say endometriosis requiring surgery will get worse without septoplasty. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $750 is more than we can find. While we wait, Henry 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. Recovery is expected to take about 6 weeks. During that time Henry won't be able to stand for more than ten minutes, so the costs keep growing. I'll pay the hospital and pharmacy directly and post every receipt in the updates section. Where the $600 goes: • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $70 • Physiotherapy sessions: $90 • Post-operative medication: $40 • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $400 Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot. - Adaeze
