Addison's a craniotomy can't wait - please help us cover the bill
Addison needs a craniotomy at Riverside Regional Medical Center and the family is $4,350 short of the hospital's estimate.

Addison was diagnosed with a deviated septum causing chronic infections in June. The surgeon at Riverside Regional Medical Center recommended a craniotomy, and She is scheduled for October. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $5,750, and after what my insurance will pay we're still $4,350 short.
my wife has been in and out of Riverside Regional Medical Center since June. The doctors say a deviated septum causing chronic infections will get worse without a craniotomy. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $5,750 is more than we can find.
While we wait, Addison struggles with daily life and can't stand for more than ten minutes. 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 Addison won't be able to stand for more than ten minutes, 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 $4,350 goes:
• Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $3,500
• Travel and lodging for the family: $175
• Pre-operative tests and imaging: $675
Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.
