Jocelyn was diagnosed with a large ovarian cyst in August. The surgeon at Nashville Orthopedic Institute recommended septoplasty, and She is scheduled for November. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $2,150, and after what our health plan will pay we're still $1,500 short. my mother has been in and out of Nashville Orthopedic Institute since August. The doctors say a large ovarian cyst will get worse without septoplasty. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $2,150 is more than we can find. While we wait, Jocelyn struggles with daily life and can't walk without help. 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 12 weeks. During that time Jocelyn won't be able to walk without help, 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 $1,500 goes: • Physiotherapy sessions: $310 • Post-operative medication: $290 • Travel and lodging for the family: $490 • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $410 I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to.
