Help Marie pay for ACL reconstruction at Hannover Community Hospital
A scheduled ACL reconstruction in October is out of reach without help covering $3,050 of the cost.

Marie was diagnosed with gallstones with repeated infections in August. The surgeon at Hannover Community Hospital recommended ACL reconstruction, and She is scheduled for October. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $5,000, and after what our health plan will pay we're still $3,050 short.
my daughter has been in and out of Hannover Community Hospital since August. The doctors say gallstones with repeated infections will get worse without ACL reconstruction. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $5,000 is more than we can find.
While we wait, Marie 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 4 weeks. During that time Marie won't be able to stand for more than ten minutes, so the costs keep growing.
I'll pay the hospital and pharmacy directly and post every receipt in the updates section.
Where the $3,050 goes:
• Post-operative medication: $240
• Physiotherapy sessions: $260
• Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $2,350
• Travel and lodging for the family: $200
I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

Keep going. Shared this with my family. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Love from Móstoles
Thinking of you and your family, Gabriele. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. Take care
is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Marie.
Sure. The biggest one is post-operative medication, $240. The rest is in the list at the bottom of the post and I'll upload receipts as I pay each one. Let me know if you want more detail.
Good luck, Gabriele. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. I hope October is when things finally get easier
Hope things get better soon, Gabriele. Shared it with a few friends. Don't give up.
Stay strong. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. It's not much but it's yours
Take care. Hope this works out for you. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected!
Hope things get better soon, Gabriele. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. God bless!
You're not alone. Hope this works out for you. It's not much but it's yours. God bless.
Keep going. Hope this works out for you. Please keep us posted. Love from Kaduna.
So sorry you're going through this, Gabriele. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Wish I lived closer to Ballarat so I could bring a meal. Greetings from Ottawa
Wishing Marie a smooth procedure and a full recovery. God bless.
