Bruno was diagnosed with severe cataracts in both eyes in June. The surgeon at Rome Orthopedic Institute recommended spinal decompression surgery, and He is scheduled for September. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $6,500, and after what the public health scheme will pay we're still $4,850 short. my husband has been in and out of Rome Orthopedic Institute since June. The doctors say severe cataracts in both eyes will get worse without spinal decompression surgery. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $6,500 is more than we can find. While we wait, Bruno struggles with daily life and can't climb stairs. 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 3 weeks. During that time Bruno won't be able to climb stairs, 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 $4,850 goes: • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $2,500 • Hospital stay (4 nights): $1,050 • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $220 • Post-operative medication: $290 • Physiotherapy sessions: $540 • Travel and lodging for the family: $250 I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.
