Help me pay for hip replacement surgery at Saint Catherine Hospital

After a benign brain tumor, Stanislav was cleared for hip replacement surgery, but the bill is more than we can manage.

In March I was diagnosed with a benign brain tumor. My surgeon at Saint Catherine Hospital recommended hip replacement surgery, and I have been placed on the schedule for June. The hospital's financial office gave me a written estimate of $2,050, and after what the government subsidy will pay, I'm still $1,650 short. Doctors at Saint Catherine Hospital told me a benign brain tumor will get worse without hip replacement surgery. I work as a market vendor, and I have saved what I can, but the estimate of $2,050 is far beyond what I've. Until the surgery I can't work full days, and my hours as a market vendor have already been cut. Every week of waiting means more pain and a bigger risk. The recovery period is expected to take about 4 weeks. I'll not be able to work a full shift 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 $1,650 goes: • Travel and lodging for the family: $145 • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $1,150 • Post-operative medication: $110 • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $175 • Physiotherapy sessions: $70 If you're reading this, thank you.
