Help Laurent pay for septoplasty at Saint Matthew Hospital

Laurent was diagnosed with a deviated septum causing chronic infections in September. The surgeon at Saint Matthew Hospital recommended septoplasty, and He is scheduled for December. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $17,250, and after what the government subsidy will pay we're still $8,600 short. my son has been in and out of Saint Matthew Hospital since September. 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 $17,250 is more than we can find. While we wait, Laurent struggles with daily life and can't lift anything heavy. His family has taken turns caring for him, and I've cut my own work hours to be there. Recovery is expected to take about 10 weeks. During that time Laurent won't be able to lift anything heavy, 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 $8,600 goes: • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $630 • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $3,300 • Hospital stay (3 nights): $3,850 • Physiotherapy sessions: $560 • Post-operative medication: $260 Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure. - Dominique
