Ionuț was diagnosed with a hernia that has become strangulated in September. The surgeon at București Orthopedic Institute recommended gallbladder removal, and He is scheduled for October. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $2,150, and after what our health plan will pay we're still $1,700 short. my father has been in and out of București Orthopedic Institute since September. The doctors say a hernia that has become strangulated will get worse without gallbladder removal. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $2,150 is more than we can find. While we wait, Ionuț struggles with daily life and can't climb stairs. His family has taken turns caring for him, and I've cut my own work hours to be there. The recovery period is expected to take about 12 weeks. During that time Ionuț won't be able to climb stairs, so the costs keep growing. I'll pay the hospital and pharmacy directly and post every receipt in the updates section. Where the $1,700 goes: • Physiotherapy sessions: $310 • Travel and lodging for the family: $75 • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $155 • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $1,160 I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to. - Tudor

    Thinking of you and your family. Wishing Ionuț a smooth procedure and a full recovery. We're a small family in Bergamo but we're thinking of you!

    • Can I help in a way that isn't money? I'm near București!

      • Thank you. If you're in București I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. Fair thing to want to know.

    • Sending strength, Tudor. Hope the doctors have good news. I'll check back for the next update. God bless.
