Boris was diagnosed with gallstones with repeated infections in July. The surgeon at Kazan General Hospital recommended a craniotomy, and He is scheduled for October. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $2,950, and after what my insurance will pay we're still $2,200 short. my son has been in and out of Kazan General Hospital since July. The doctors say gallstones with repeated infections will get worse without a craniotomy. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $2,950 is more than we can find. While we wait, Boris struggles with daily life and can't look after the children alone. His family has taken turns caring for him, and I've cut my own work hours to be there. The recovery period is expected to take about 7 weeks. During that time Boris won't be able to look after the children alone, 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 $2,200 goes: • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $100 • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $1,100 • Travel and lodging for the family: $135 • Hospital stay (4 nights): $600 • Physiotherapy sessions: $265 Every share and every dollar helps.
