After a hip fracture that never healed properly, Kwabena was cleared for septoplasty, but the bill is more than we can manage.

Ho
Kwabena was diagnosed with a hip fracture that never healed properly in April. The surgeon at Ho Orthopedic Institute recommended septoplasty, and He is scheduled for July. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $2,150, and after what the public health scheme will pay we're still $1,300 short. my son has been in and out of Ho Orthopedic Institute since April. The doctors say a hip fracture that never healed properly will get worse without septoplasty. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $2,150 is more than we can find. While we wait, Kwabena struggles with daily life and can't walk without help. His family has taken turns caring for him, and I've cut my own work hours to be there. Rehabilitation is expected to take about 10 weeks. During that time Kwabena won't be able to walk without help, 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 $1,300 goes: • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $580 • Hospital stay (2 nights): $470 • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $90 • Post-operative medication: $30 • Physiotherapy sessions: $95 • Travel and lodging for the family: $35 Thanks for being kind about this.
