Aurora was diagnosed with a large ovarian cyst in May. The surgeon at Liverpool Regional Medical Center recommended valve repair surgery, and She is scheduled for September. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $5,750, and after what my insurance will pay we're still $3,950 short.
my daughter has been in and out of Liverpool Regional Medical Center since May. The doctors say a large ovarian cyst will get worse without valve repair surgery. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $5,750 is more than we can find.
While we wait, Aurora 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.
Rehabilitation is expected to take about 3 weeks. During that time Aurora won't be able to stand for more than ten minutes, so the costs keep growing.
I'll pay the hospital and pharmacy directly and post every receipt in the updates section.
Where the $3,950 goes:
• Travel and lodging for the family: $440
• Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $2,600
• Pre-operative tests and imaging: $530
• Post-operative medication: $380
