Crystal was diagnosed with an aortic valve defect in September. The surgeon at Los Angeles Community Hospital recommended ACL reconstruction, and She is scheduled for November. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $2,150, and after what the government subsidy will pay we're still $1,600 short. my daughter has been in and out of Los Angeles Community Hospital since September. The doctors say an aortic valve defect will get worse without ACL reconstruction. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $2,150 is more than we can find. While we wait, Crystal struggles with daily life and can't lift anything heavy. Her family has taken turns caring for her, and I've cut my own work hours to be there. The recovery period is expected to take about 8 weeks. During that time Crystal won't be able to lift anything heavy, 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 $1,600 goes: • Travel and lodging for the family: $320 • Post-operative medication: $185 • Physiotherapy sessions: $850 • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $245 If you're reading this, thank you. - Angel
