Autumn was diagnosed with endometriosis requiring surgery in June. The surgeon at Leeds Orthopedic Institute recommended emergency hernia repair, and She is scheduled for October. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $7,500, and after what my insurance will pay we're still $5,900 short. my mother has been in and out of Leeds Orthopedic Institute since June. The doctors say endometriosis requiring surgery will get worse without emergency hernia repair. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $7,500 is more than we can find. While we wait, Autumn 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. Rehabilitation is expected to take about 7 weeks. During that time Autumn won't be able to walk without help, 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 $5,900 goes: • Post-operative medication: $260 • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $380 • Hospital stay (2 nights): $2,100 • Travel and lodging for the family: $330 • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $2,830 You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.
