Anton was diagnosed with a torn ligament that needs reconstruction in August. The surgeon at Saint Luke Hospital recommended ACL reconstruction, and He is scheduled for November. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $1,950, and after what the government subsidy will pay we're still $1,350 short. my son has been in and out of Saint Luke Hospital since August. The doctors say a torn ligament that needs reconstruction will get worse without ACL reconstruction. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $1,950 is more than we can find. While we wait, Anton struggles with daily life and can't stand for more than ten minutes. His family has taken turns caring for him, and I've cut my own work hours to be there. The recovery period is expected to take about 10 weeks. During that time Anton 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 $1,350 goes: • Travel and lodging for the family: $135 • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $135 • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $960 • Physiotherapy sessions: $120 I hope life is good to you. - Ruslan

  • Sending strength. Get well soon. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Thinking of Yekaterinburg.

    • Stay strong. Looking forward to the next update. My neighbor in Catania donated after I showed her your page.

      • Keep going. Wishing Anton a smooth procedure and a full recovery. Don't give up.

        • I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Sent it to 7 people at work. Thinking of Yekaterinburg.

          • Rooting for you, Ruslan. Shared this with my family. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Love from Atlanta.

            • Thinking of you and your family, Ruslan. This could happen to any of us.
