Hadley's septoplasty can't wait - please help us cover the bill

After a large ovarian cyst, Hadley was cleared for septoplasty, but the bill is more than we can manage.

In January I was diagnosed with a large ovarian cyst. My surgeon at Laredo Regional Medical Center recommended septoplasty, and I have been placed on the schedule for April. The hospital's financial office gave me a written estimate of $8,000, and after what the public health scheme will pay, I'm still $6,300 short. Doctors at Laredo Regional Medical Center told me a large ovarian cyst will get worse without septoplasty. I work as a market vendor, and I have saved what I can, but the estimate of $8,000 is far beyond what I've. Until the surgery I can't work full days, and my hours as a market vendor have already been cut. Every week of waiting means more pain and a bigger risk. The recovery period is expected to take about 12 weeks. I'll not be able to work a full shift 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 $6,300 goes: โ€ข Pre-operative tests and imaging: $320 โ€ข Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $3,050 โ€ข Physiotherapy sessions: $430 โ€ข Travel and lodging for the family: $210 โ€ข Hospital stay (3 nights): $2,290 Thank you for reading my story.

  • Stay strong, Hadley. It takes guts to ask. Well done.

    • Hope it all works out, Hadley. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Love from Macon.
