Surgery fund for Yinka: septoplasty in Abuja

Yinka was diagnosed with a thyroid nodule that needs removal in March. The surgeon at Abuja University Hospital recommended septoplasty, and He is scheduled for June. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $1,200, and after what our health plan will pay we're still $950 short. my husband has been in and out of Abuja University Hospital since March. The doctors say a thyroid nodule that needs removal will get worse without septoplasty. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $1,200 is more than we can find. While we wait, Yinka struggles with daily life and can't drive. His family has taken turns caring for him, and I've cut my own work hours to be there. The recovery period is expected to take about 10 weeks. During that time Yinka won't be able to drive, so the costs keep growing. I'll pay the hospital and pharmacy directly and post every receipt in the updates section. Where the $950 goes: • Hospital stay (4 nights): $290 • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $450 • Post-operative medication: $50 • Physiotherapy sessions: $115 • Travel and lodging for the family: $45 Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself. - Hauwa
