Hi, My name is Joselyne, I am trying to help my Coworker who lives in Lima Peru reach emergency funds for her son who is 1 year old and needs an emergency operation he has a diagnosis of CRANEOSINOSTOSIS.

Please help Santos to reach his funds!!

 

God Bless you all!

 

My name Blanca Quispealaya, My child Santos Gael had an observation on his head at birth due to its size, they took an ultrasound, the doctors thinking that it could be hydrocephalus, which came out negative, and they gave him a medical discharge. My child grew forward as there was no growth and development clinic due to the covid pandemic, he could not have control of it, at 09 months he had a consultation for nutrition and it is there that the nutritionist sees that my son's head was not Normally, they referred me to pediatrics and then went on to neurosurgery, on September 13 they took a tomography, giving the conclusion to the neurosurgeons that he has a diagnosis of craniosynostosis (scaphocephaly) and had to undergo surgery as soon as possible for which he was admitted to hospital. On September 24, unfortunately that day they took a covid test and it came out positive when they saw this result, the doctors stopped the operation, isolating him 15 days after that, they rescheduled the operation for October 12 where he was admitted for the second time, to be operated on October 21 it happens that my child was already in the operating room and the anesthesiologist stopped the operation, her reasons were that they could not operate on my child in That health center for not having pediatric intensive care since the operation would need to be transfused with blood and instantly go to intensive care, as the medical center did not have it, the doctors made a medical meeting where they referred me with a letter guarantee to the Saludpol insurance company, the insurer is the one who is in charge of looking for a medical center where they can refer my son, which to date is taking a long time, on the other hand I have been taking him through health insurance, which is the insurance that I have which To date they only tell me to wait for an appointment and no response, I have taken a pediatric child to two clinics which told me that if I wanted to operate there the cost would be 250 000.00 soles ( USD65,000 ), the doctor saw me very desperate which told me to go to the San Juan de Dios clinic where she took my son and there they told me that the operation would be valued at 100 000.00 soles ( USD27,000 ) as long as it is no more than 3 days in ICU, if this happens, the rate will rise, all the doctors where I have taken my son tell me that he had to be operated on at 03 maximum 06 months of age, which has already happened and the operation is more risky due to This must be operated as soon as possible, because the skull is pressing on the brain which causes my child to have delays in his growth and development, my child has been presenting seizures and constant vomiting every time I take him to the emergency room, the only thing What they do is establish it and just say that their operation has to be scheduled unfortunately with this covid pandemic there is a lot of congestion in the operating room and that is why you have to wait from 08 to 12 months depending on the availability of salt to surgery in the health insurance and my child cannot wait any longer, my frustration as a mother is enormous because I cannot get that amount of money and be able to help my child but I do not lose my faith and hope before God, I will not get tired of look for the thousand and one way that they can help my child and that he can develop as a healthy child, I thank each person infinitely for their support of my little one.
