Help Esperanza pay for ACL reconstruction at Buenos Aires Orthopedic Institute
A scheduled ACL reconstruction in May is out of reach without help covering $1,400 of the cost.

Esperanza was diagnosed with osteoarthritis in the right knee in February. The surgeon at Buenos Aires Orthopedic Institute recommended ACL reconstruction, and She is scheduled for May. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $2,350, and after what our health plan will pay we're still $1,400 short.
my daughter has been in and out of Buenos Aires Orthopedic Institute since February. The doctors say osteoarthritis in the right knee will get worse without ACL reconstruction. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $2,350 is more than we can find.
While we wait, Esperanza struggles with daily life and can't drive. 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 6 weeks. During that time Esperanza won't be able to drive, 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 $1,400 goes:
• Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $530
• Hospital stay (4 nights): $540
• Pre-operative tests and imaging: $65
• Post-operative medication: $55
• Physiotherapy sessions: $120
• Travel and lodging for the family: $90
