In January I was diagnosed with a hernia that has become strangulated. My surgeon at Fresno Regional Medical Center recommended valve repair surgery, and I have been placed on the schedule for April. The hospital's financial office gave me a written estimate of $1,700, and after what the public health scheme will pay, I'm still $1,200 short. Doctors at Fresno Regional Medical Center told me a hernia that has become strangulated will get worse without valve repair surgery. I work as a seamstress, and I have saved what I can, but the estimate of $1,700 is far beyond what I've. Until the surgery I can't work full days, and my hours as a seamstress have already been cut. Every week of waiting means more pain and a bigger risk. Rehabilitation is expected to take about 10 weeks. I'll not be able to climb stairs during that time, so this has become a financial emergency as well as a medical one. 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 $1,200 goes: • Post-operative medication: $320 • Travel and lodging for the family: $520 • Physiotherapy sessions: $360 If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.
