Lyudmila was diagnosed with gallstones with repeated infections in September. The surgeon at Saint Petersburg Regional Medical Center recommended hip replacement surgery, and She is scheduled for November. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $1,400, and after what my insurance will pay we're still $850 short. my sister has been in and out of Saint Petersburg Regional Medical Center since September. The doctors say gallstones with repeated infections will get worse without hip replacement surgery. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $1,400 is more than we can find. While we wait, Lyudmila struggles with daily life and can't lift anything heavy. 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 Lyudmila 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 $850 goes: • Travel and lodging for the family: $90 • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $550 • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $105 • Post-operative medication: $105 I hope life is good to you. - Yevhen

  1. Thank you all. We're at 24% now ($206). I'm honestly stunned. I made the first payment toward post-operative medication.
