Alejandra was diagnosed with a large ovarian cyst in July. The surgeon at Bogotá Orthopedic Institute recommended knee replacement surgery, and She is scheduled for October. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $1,950, and after what the public health scheme will pay we're still $1,550 short. my mother has been in and out of Bogotá Orthopedic Institute since July. The doctors say a large ovarian cyst will get worse without knee replacement surgery. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $1,950 is more than we can find. While we wait, Alejandra struggles with daily life and can't climb stairs. Her family has taken turns caring for her, and I've cut my own work hours to be there. Rehabilitation is expected to take about 12 weeks. During that time Alejandra won't be able to climb stairs, 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 $1,550 goes: • Hospital stay (4 nights): $500 • Post-operative medication: $105 • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $740 • Physiotherapy sessions: $205 If you're reading this, thank you. - Sofía
