Dariusz's knee replacement surgery can't wait - please help us cover the bill
A scheduled knee replacement surgery in August is out of reach without help covering $2,150 of the cost.
🇵🇱 Warsaw, Masovia, Poland2,298 views
Dariusz was diagnosed with endometriosis requiring surgery in May. The surgeon at Warsaw Orthopedic Institute recommended knee replacement surgery, and He is scheduled for August. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $4,300, and after what my insurance will pay we're still $2,150 short.
my son has been in and out of Warsaw Orthopedic Institute since May. The doctors say endometriosis requiring surgery will get worse without knee replacement surgery. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $4,300 is more than we can find.
While we wait, Dariusz struggles with daily life and can't drive. 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 5 weeks. During that time Dariusz won't be able to drive, so the costs keep growing.
I'll pay the hospital and pharmacy directly and post every receipt in the updates section.
Where the $2,150 goes:
• Pre-operative tests and imaging: $135
• Post-operative medication: $165
• Physiotherapy sessions: $330
• Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $1,520
I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Dariusz.
Stay strong, Maciej. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money!
Thinking of you. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Thinking of Warsaw
