After a deviated septum causing chronic infections, Gianna was cleared for laparoscopic cyst removal, but the bill is more than we can manage.

Gianna was diagnosed with a deviated septum causing chronic infections in June. The surgeon at Worcester University Hospital recommended laparoscopic cyst removal, and She is scheduled for August. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $13,000, and after what the government subsidy will pay we're still $7,750 short. my daughter has been in and out of Worcester University Hospital since June. The doctors say a deviated septum causing chronic infections will get worse without laparoscopic cyst removal. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $13,000 is more than we can find. While we wait, Gianna 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. The recovery period is expected to take about 7 weeks. During that time Gianna 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 $7,750 goes: • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $4,400 • Hospital stay (4 nights): $1,400 • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $550 • Post-operative medication: $420 • Physiotherapy sessions: $740 • Travel and lodging for the family: $240 I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.
