Charles's laparoscopic endometriosis surgery can't wait - please help us cover the bill

In May I was diagnosed with endometriosis requiring surgery. My surgeon at Eugene Orthopedic Institute recommended laparoscopic endometriosis surgery, and I have been placed on the schedule for August. The hospital's financial office gave me a written estimate of $10,250, and after what my insurance will pay, I'm still $7,750 short. Doctors at Eugene Orthopedic Institute told me endometriosis requiring surgery will get worse without laparoscopic endometriosis surgery. I work as a market vendor, and I have saved what I can, but the estimate of $10,250 is far beyond what I've. Until the surgery I can't work full days, and my hours as a market vendor have already been cut. Every week of waiting means more pain and a bigger risk. Rehabilitation is expected to take about 4 weeks. I'll not be able to stand for more than ten minutes during that time, so this has become a financial emergency as well as a medical one. I'll pay the hospital and pharmacy directly and post every receipt in the updates section. Where the $7,750 goes: • Post-operative medication: $175 • Physiotherapy sessions: $600 • Hospital stay (5 nights): $3,650 • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $2,800 • Travel and lodging for the family: $525 I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to. - Charles
