Dinusha was diagnosed with a herniated spinal disc in July. The surgeon at Saint Matthew Hospital recommended hip replacement surgery, and She is scheduled for November. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $1,550, and after what my insurance will pay we're still $1,250 short. my daughter has been in and out of Saint Matthew Hospital since July. The doctors say a herniated spinal disc will get worse without hip replacement surgery. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $1,550 is more than we can find. While we wait, Dinusha struggles with daily life and can't climb stairs. Her family has taken turns caring for her, and I've cut my own work hours to be there. The recovery period is expected to take about 4 weeks. During that time Dinusha 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 $1,250 goes: • Travel and lodging for the family: $55 • Post-operative medication: $65 • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $410 • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $100 • Hospital stay (2 nights): $620 Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.
