Anna was diagnosed with osteoarthritis in the right knee in May. The surgeon at Belfast Regional Medical Center recommended palate reconstruction surgery, and She is scheduled for July. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $1,750, and after what our health plan will pay we're still $1,050 short. my mother has been in and out of Belfast Regional Medical Center since May. The doctors say osteoarthritis in the right knee will get worse without palate reconstruction surgery. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $1,750 is more than we can find. While we wait, Anna struggles with daily life and can't walk without help. 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 8 weeks. During that time Anna won't be able to walk without help, so the costs keep growing. I'll pay the hospital and pharmacy directly and post every receipt in the updates section. Where the $1,050 goes: • Physiotherapy sessions: $380 • Travel and lodging for the family: $230 • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $440 Glad we found this place. - Hazel

      Thank you. If you're in Belfast I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. Thanks for asking.

  • thinking of you, Hazel. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust.

    • hope things get better soon, Hazel. Gave what I could, wish it was more

      • Hope things get better soon. I hope things turn around soon. It's not much but it's yours. Take care.

        • Good luck, Hazel. Hope you get there. All the best.

          • Hope it all works out, Hazel. Wishing Anna a smooth procedure and a full recovery. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Thinking of Belfast.

            • Rooting for you. Hope this works out for you. Wish I lived closer to Istanbul so I could bring a meal.
