Liliana was diagnosed with a deviated septum causing chronic infections in August. The surgeon at Buffalo Community Hospital recommended palate reconstruction surgery, and She is scheduled for December. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $16,750, and after what our health plan will pay we're still $8,350 short.
my sister has been in and out of Buffalo Community Hospital since August. The doctors say a deviated septum causing chronic infections will get worse without palate reconstruction surgery. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $16,750 is more than we can find.
While we wait, Liliana 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 10 weeks. During that time Liliana won't be able to walk without help, so the costs keep growing.
I'll pay the hospital and pharmacy directly and post every receipt in the updates section.
Where the $8,350 goes:
• Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $4,000
• Physiotherapy sessions: $590
• Pre-operative tests and imaging: $340
• Post-operative medication: $280
• Hospital stay (2 nights): $3,140
Glad we found this place.

Sending strength, Nova. Shared this with my family. Thinking of Buffalo.
You're not alone. This could happen to any of us. Put this on a community board in Los Angeles this morning!
Shared it with a few friends. My neighbor in New Delhi donated after I showed her your page
Sending strength, Nova. Shared this with my family. Wish I lived closer to Columbus so I could bring a meal. Love from Milan.
