Help Lorenzo pay for hip replacement surgery at Bucaramanga General Hospital

Lorenzo was diagnosed with a hernia that has become strangulated in September. The surgeon at Bucaramanga General Hospital recommended hip replacement surgery, and He is scheduled for December. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $2,800, and after what the government subsidy will pay we're still $1,950 short. my brother has been in and out of Bucaramanga General Hospital since September. The doctors say a hernia that has become strangulated will get worse without hip replacement surgery. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $2,800 is more than we can find. While we wait, Lorenzo struggles with daily life and can't stand for more than ten minutes. 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 6 weeks. During that time Lorenzo won't be able to stand for more than ten minutes, 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 $1,950 goes: • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $840 • Hospital stay (2 nights): $730 • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $180 • Post-operative medication: $65 • Physiotherapy sessions: $90 • Travel and lodging for the family: $45 Glad we found this place. - Hugo
