A partial thyroidectomy for Sofía: covering what insurance won't

Sofía was diagnosed with endometriosis requiring surgery in August. The surgeon at Coyoacán Orthopedic Institute recommended a partial thyroidectomy, and She is scheduled for November. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $2,350, and after what the public health scheme will pay we're still $1,750 short. my mother has been in and out of Coyoacán Orthopedic Institute since August. The doctors say endometriosis requiring surgery will get worse without a partial thyroidectomy. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $2,350 is more than we can find. While we wait, Sofía struggles with daily life and can't work a full shift. Her family has taken turns caring for her, and I've cut my own work hours to be there. The recovery period is expected to take about 12 weeks. During that time Sofía won't be able to work a full shift, so the costs keep growing. 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 $1,750 goes: • Hospital stay (5 nights): $1,150 • Physiotherapy sessions: $200 • Travel and lodging for the family: $150 • Post-operative medication: $65 • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $185 With deep gratitude, Hugo
