Eva's gallbladder removal can't wait - please help us cover the bill
A scheduled gallbladder removal in October is out of reach without help covering $2,300 of the cost.
🇦🇺 Adelaide, South Australia, Australia2,704 views
In August I was diagnosed with a deviated septum causing chronic infections. My surgeon at Adelaide Regional Medical Center recommended gallbladder removal, and I have been placed on the schedule for October. The hospital's financial office gave me a written estimate of $3,050, and after what my employer's plan will pay, I'm still $2,300 short.
Doctors at Adelaide Regional Medical Center told me a deviated septum causing chronic infections will get worse without gallbladder removal. I work as a call-centre agent, and I have saved what I can, but the estimate of $3,050 is far beyond what I've.
Until the surgery I can't work full days, and my hours as a call-centre agent have already been cut. Every week of waiting means more pain and a bigger risk.
Rehabilitation is expected to take about 6 weeks. I'll not be able to look after the children alone 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 $2,300 goes:
• Hospital stay (4 nights): $1,500
• Travel and lodging for the family: $370
• Post-operative medication: $430
If you're reading this, thank you.

Thinking of you and your family. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. My husband and I read this together. Love from Campinas.
I hope things turn around soon. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Greetings from Mumbai
Sending strength, Eva. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Greetings from Liverpool.
Sending strength. Get well soon. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. God bless.
