Emilia was diagnosed with a deviated septum causing chronic infections in February. The surgeon at Mississauga Regional Medical Center recommended septoplasty, and She is scheduled for April. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $7,250, and after what my employer's plan will pay we're still $3,600 short. my wife has been in and out of Mississauga Regional Medical Center since February. The doctors say a deviated septum causing chronic infections will get worse without septoplasty. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $7,250 is more than we can find. While we wait, Emilia struggles with daily life and can't work a full shift. 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 3 weeks. During that time Emilia won't be able to work a full shift, so the costs keep growing. I'll pay the hospital and pharmacy directly and post every receipt in the updates section. Where the $3,600 goes: • Travel and lodging for the family: $440 • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $2,000 • Physiotherapy sessions: $510 • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $470 • Post-operative medication: $180 I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to. - David

          • I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. Wish I lived closer to Pune so I could bring a meal.
