HEPHZIBAH YEMISI IDIOPATHIC SCOLIOSIS FUND
HEPHZIBAH YEMISI OLADIPO is a 15 years old girl who was diagnosed of Idiopathic scoliosis, in 2015 when she was 10 years old.
Every effort to seek cure in Nigeria (Africa) has proven very difficult since the parents could not afford the medical cost.
Enquiries from some medical centers in the UnitedStates and Canada indicated that the surgery cost alone is about $40,000 and inclusive of ancillary expenses such as international and local flights, hotel-accommodation . In fact a more recent information from Canada estimated the cost to between $50,000-$70,000.
Hephzibah and her parents attend my former church in Nigeria. Her case has created a lot of concern to me personally, and that’s why I decided to ask for help on behalf of this very intelligent young girl.
