Help Dineo pay for laparoscopic cyst removal at Cape Town General Hospital

Dineo was diagnosed with an aortic valve defect in August. The surgeon at Cape Town General Hospital recommended laparoscopic cyst removal, and She is scheduled for December. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $1,400, and after what my insurance will pay we're still $1,100 short. my wife has been in and out of Cape Town General Hospital since August. The doctors say an aortic valve defect will get worse without laparoscopic cyst removal. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $1,400 is more than we can find. While we wait, Dineo struggles with daily life and can't look after the children alone. 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 4 weeks. During that time Dineo won't be able to look after the children alone, so the costs keep growing. I'll pay the hospital and pharmacy directly and post every receipt in the updates section. Where the $1,100 goes: • Post-operative medication: $110 • Physiotherapy sessions: $125 • Hospital stay (5 nights): $865 You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it. - Craig
