Help Maya pay for septoplasty at Saint Catherine Hospital

Maya was diagnosed with an aortic valve defect in May. The surgeon at Saint Catherine Hospital recommended septoplasty, and She is scheduled for August. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $1,750, and after what our health plan will pay we're still $1,050 short. my wife has been in and out of Saint Catherine Hospital since May. The doctors say an aortic valve defect will get worse without septoplasty. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $1,750 is more than we can find. While we wait, Maya 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. Recovery is expected to take about 8 weeks. During that time Maya 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 $1,050 goes: • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $80 • Travel and lodging for the family: $70 • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $400 • Hospital stay (4 nights): $500 Every share and every dollar helps. - Heru
