Help Annabelle pay for laparoscopic cyst removal at Flint University Hospital

Annabelle was diagnosed with a thyroid nodule that needs removal in August. The surgeon at Flint University Hospital recommended laparoscopic cyst removal, and She is scheduled for October. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $7,000, and after what my insurance will pay we're still $5,600 short. my wife has been in and out of Flint University Hospital since August. The doctors say a thyroid nodule that needs removal will get worse without laparoscopic cyst removal. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $7,000 is more than we can find. While we wait, Annabelle struggles with daily life and can't drive. Her family has taken turns caring for her, and I've cut my own work hours to be there. Rehabilitation is expected to take about 10 weeks. During that time Annabelle won't be able to drive, so the costs keep growing. I'll pay the hospital and pharmacy directly and post every receipt in the updates section. Where the $5,600 goes: • Hospital stay (2 nights): $1,450 • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $2,900 • Travel and lodging for the family: $450 • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $470 • Post-operative medication: $330 Thanks for reading all this.
