Help Andrea pay for laparoscopic cyst removal at Berlin Regional Medical Center

Andrea was diagnosed with a large ovarian cyst in June. The surgeon at Berlin Regional Medical Center recommended laparoscopic cyst removal, and She is scheduled for September. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $6,000, and after what my insurance will pay we're still $4,550 short. my wife has been in and out of Berlin Regional Medical Center since June. The doctors say a large ovarian cyst will get worse without laparoscopic cyst removal. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $6,000 is more than we can find. While we wait, Andrea struggles with daily life and can't look after the children alone. 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 6 weeks. During that time Andrea won't be able to look after the children alone, 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 $4,550 goes: • Travel and lodging for the family: $300 • Post-operative medication: $195 • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $2,900 • Hospital stay (2 nights): $1,155 Thank you for reading my story. - Lina
