In August I was diagnosed with a thyroid nodule that needs removal. My surgeon at Cairo Regional Medical Center recommended ACL reconstruction, and I have been placed on the schedule for October. The hospital's financial office gave me a written estimate of $1,800, and after what the public health scheme will pay, I'm still $900 short. Doctors at Cairo Regional Medical Center told me a thyroid nodule that needs removal will get worse without ACL reconstruction. I work as a warehouse packer, and I have saved what I can, but the estimate of $1,800 is far beyond what I've. Until the surgery I can't work full days, and my hours as a warehouse packer have already been cut. Every week of waiting means more pain and a bigger risk. Recovery is expected to take about 4 weeks. I'll not be able to walk without help 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 $900 goes: โ€ข Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $340 โ€ข Hospital stay (2 nights): $500 โ€ข Travel and lodging for the family: $60 Thanks for being kind about this.
