Surgery fund for Muthoni: ACL reconstruction in Nairobi

Muthoni was diagnosed with endometriosis requiring surgery in August. The surgeon at Nairobi Community Hospital recommended ACL reconstruction, and She is scheduled for October. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $1,500, and after what the public health scheme will pay we're still $900 short. my mother has been in and out of Nairobi Community Hospital since August. The doctors say endometriosis requiring surgery will get worse without ACL reconstruction. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $1,500 is more than we can find. While we wait, Muthoni 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. Recovery is expected to take about 12 weeks. During that time Muthoni 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 $900 goes: • Hospital stay (3 nights): $250 • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $570 • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $80 I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to.
