Surgery fund for Peace: septoplasty in Nnewi
A scheduled septoplasty in December is out of reach without help covering $650 of the cost.
🇳🇬 Nnewi, Anambra, Nigeria2,104 views
Peace was diagnosed with a cleft palate needing repair in October. The surgeon at Nnewi Orthopedic Institute recommended septoplasty, and She is scheduled for December. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $810, and after what my employer's plan will pay we're still $650 short.
my mother has been in and out of Nnewi Orthopedic Institute since October. The doctors say a cleft palate needing repair will get worse without septoplasty. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $810 is more than we can find.
While we wait, Peace 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.
The recovery period is expected to take about 8 weeks. During that time Peace 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 $650 goes:
• Hospital stay (5 nights): $220
• Pre-operative tests and imaging: $45
• Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $310
• Post-operative medication: $65
• Travel and lodging for the family: $10
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

Wishing you peace, Gbenga. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Thinking of Nnewi.
can I help in a way that isn't money? I'm near Nnewi.
Thank you. If you're in Nnewi I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. It helps to be asked.
Stay strong. Hope this works out for you. Blessings
