Wafula's a craniotomy can't wait - please help us cover the bill

In July I was diagnosed with a hip fracture that never healed properly. My surgeon at Entebbe Regional Medical Center recommended a craniotomy, and I have been placed on the schedule for November. The hospital's financial office gave me a written estimate of $1,000, and after what our health plan will pay, I'm still $800 short. Doctors at Entebbe Regional Medical Center told me a hip fracture that never healed properly will get worse without a craniotomy. I work as a call-centre agent, and I have saved what I can, but the estimate of $1,000 is far beyond what I've. Until the surgery I can't work full days, and my hours as a call-centre agent have already been cut. Every week of waiting means more pain and a bigger risk. Recovery is expected to take about 3 weeks. I'll not be able to walk without help during that time, so this has become a financial emergency as well as a medical one. 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 $800 goes: • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $280 • Hospital stay (4 nights): $310 • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $70 • Post-operative medication: $25 • Physiotherapy sessions: $80 • Travel and lodging for the family: $35 Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.
