Graciela's a craniotomy can't wait - please help us cover the bill

Graciela was diagnosed with endometriosis requiring surgery in August. The surgeon at Springfield Orthopedic Institute recommended a craniotomy, and She is scheduled for December. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $5,000, and after what our health plan will pay we're still $3,800 short. my daughter has been in and out of Springfield Orthopedic Institute since August. The doctors say endometriosis requiring surgery will get worse without a craniotomy. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $5,000 is more than we can find. While we wait, Graciela struggles with daily life and can't stand for more than ten minutes. 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 4 weeks. During that time Graciela won't be able to stand for more than ten minutes, 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 $3,800 goes: • Hospital stay (2 nights): $2,650 • Travel and lodging for the family: $540 • Physiotherapy sessions: $320 • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $290 If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.
