Help Eiji pay for hip replacement surgery at Kawasaki Orthopedic Institute
After endometriosis requiring surgery, Eiji was cleared for hip replacement surgery, but the bill is more than we can manage.

Eiji was diagnosed with endometriosis requiring surgery in December. The surgeon at Kawasaki Orthopedic Institute recommended hip replacement surgery, and He is scheduled for March. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $5,750, and after what my insurance will pay we're still $4,500 short.
my son has been in and out of Kawasaki Orthopedic Institute since December. The doctors say endometriosis requiring surgery will get worse without hip replacement surgery. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $5,750 is more than we can find.
While we wait, Eiji struggles with daily life and can't drive. His family has taken turns caring for him, and I've cut my own work hours to be there.
Rehabilitation is expected to take about 8 weeks. During that time Eiji won't be able to drive, so the costs keep growing.
I'll pay the hospital and pharmacy directly and post every receipt in the updates section.
Where the $4,500 goes:
• Travel and lodging for the family: $250
• Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $2,700
• Hospital stay (4 nights): $1,200
• Post-operative medication: $350
Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.

Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Greetings from Coatzacoalcos
