After a deviated septum causing chronic infections, Cristina was cleared for a craniotomy, but the bill is more than we can manage.

Cristina was diagnosed with a deviated septum causing chronic infections in May. The surgeon at Monterrey General Hospital recommended a craniotomy, and She is scheduled for July. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $2,850, and after what the government subsidy will pay we're still $1,700 short. my sister has been in and out of Monterrey General Hospital since May. The doctors say a deviated septum causing chronic infections will get worse without a craniotomy. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $2,850 is more than we can find. While we wait, Cristina struggles with daily life and can't lift anything heavy. 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 Cristina won't be able to lift anything heavy, 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 $1,700 goes: • Post-operative medication: $90 • Physiotherapy sessions: $220 • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $1,200 • Travel and lodging for the family: $45 • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $145 Thank you so much.

    Perfect example of someone making a real difference. They took time out of their busy schedule to help me and never made me feel like a burden.

    Went above and beyond

    This helper is honest and transparent about what they can do. They didn't overpromise, but they did deliver excellent results. I would definitely trust them again.
