<div>We are friends of Benjamin Adelekan, reaching out with a humble and hopeful heart. Until six months ago, Benjamin was a healthy 40-year-old man, a dedicated husband, and a hands-on father to two beautiful young children. But in an instant, his world came crashing down.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>A fall at work (building sites, doing tiling and construction) took away his ability to walk, revealing a severe and painful condition he had been silently battling. Now, he is mostly confined to a bed, unable to work or even play with his kids. His family's future hangs in the balance and he desperately need your help to walk again.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>What Happened? Understanding the Medical Crisis</strong>
</div>
<div>Extensive medical tests after the fall, reveals a diagnosis of <strong>Bilateral Avascular Necrosis of the Femoral Head.</strong>
</div>
<div>In simple terms:
</div>
<div>The "ball" part of the hip joint (the femoral head) has died because its blood supply was cut off. Think of it like a plant that has been starved of water – it withers and collapses. In Benjamin’s case, this has happened in both hips, making it impossible for him to bear weight or walk without excruciating pain.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>The Financial Mountain He Faces:</strong>
</div>
<div>The doctors have made clear that the only way he can regain his mobility, and life back is through a surgical operation called Bilateral Hip Replacement. This means both of his damaged hip joints will be replaced with artificial ones.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>The total cost for this life-changing surgery and recovery is about 9 Million Naira (approximately <strong>£4,500</strong>).
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>This breaks down as:
</div>
<div>· 7 Million Naira: For the bilateral hip replacement operation itself.
</div>
<div>· 2 Million Naira: For essential rehabilitation, medications, and post-operative care to ensure he fully recovers and can learn to walk again properly.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>A Plea from our Hearts
</div>
<div>Your donation, no matter how small, will not just be paying for a surgery. It will be giving Benjamin his life back.
</div>
<div><br />
