Help me pay for a craniotomy at San Jose General Hospital

In November I was diagnosed with a large ovarian cyst. My surgeon at San Jose General Hospital recommended a craniotomy, and I have been placed on the schedule for February. The hospital's financial office gave me a written estimate of $7,000, and after what my employer's plan will pay, I'm still $3,500 short. Doctors at San Jose General Hospital told me a large ovarian cyst will get worse without a craniotomy. I work as a seamstress, and I have saved what I can, but the estimate of $7,000 is far beyond what I've. Until the surgery I can't work full days, and my hours as a seamstress have already been cut. Every week of waiting means more pain and a bigger risk. Rehabilitation is expected to take about 12 weeks. I'll not be able to drive during that time, so this has become a financial emergency as well as a medical one. 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 $3,500 goes: • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $600 • Post-operative medication: $360 • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $2,540 I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to. - Mackenzie
