Dae-hyun's septoplasty can't wait - please help us cover the bill
After endometriosis requiring surgery, Dae-hyun was cleared for septoplasty, but the bill is more than we can manage.

Dae-hyun was diagnosed with endometriosis requiring surgery in April. The surgeon at Springfield Community Hospital recommended septoplasty, and He is scheduled for June. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $9,750, and after what my insurance will pay we're still $7,400 short.
my son has been in and out of Springfield Community Hospital since April. The doctors say endometriosis requiring surgery will get worse without septoplasty. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $9,750 is more than we can find.
While we wait, Dae-hyun struggles with daily life and can't walk without help. 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 8 weeks. During that time Dae-hyun won't be able to walk without help, so the costs keep growing.
I'll pay the hospital and pharmacy directly and post every receipt in the updates section.
Where the $7,400 goes:
• Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $2,300
• Hospital stay (5 nights): $3,150
• Pre-operative tests and imaging: $600
• Post-operative medication: $330
• Physiotherapy sessions: $690
• Travel and lodging for the family: $330
Thanks for reading all this.
