Help Luana pay for cataract surgery at Saint Catherine Hospital

Luana was diagnosed with severe cataracts in both eyes in June. The surgeon at Saint Catherine Hospital recommended cataract surgery, and She is scheduled for August. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $1,800, and after what my employer's plan will pay we're still $1,250 short. my daughter has been in and out of Saint Catherine Hospital since June. The doctors say severe cataracts in both eyes will get worse without cataract surgery. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $1,800 is more than we can find. While we wait, Luana struggles with daily life and can't stand for more than ten minutes. 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 Luana 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 $1,250 goes: • Post-operative medication: $65 • Travel and lodging for the family: $55 • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $195 • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $935 Thank you so much. - Ana
