Help me pay for knee replacement surgery at Piraeus Regional Medical Center

In June I was diagnosed with a cleft palate needing repair. My surgeon at Piraeus Regional Medical Center recommended knee replacement surgery, and I have been placed on the schedule for August. The hospital's financial office gave me a written estimate of $3,100, and after what the public health scheme will pay, I'm still $1,850 short. Doctors at Piraeus Regional Medical Center told me a cleft palate needing repair will get worse without knee replacement surgery. I work as a school bus driver, and I have saved what I can, but the estimate of $3,100 is far beyond what I've. Until the surgery I can't work full days, and my hours as a school bus driver have already been cut. Every week of waiting means more pain and a bigger risk. Recovery is expected to take about 3 weeks. I'll not be able to lift anything heavy 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 $1,850 goes: • Post-operative medication: $230 • Physiotherapy sessions: $490 • Travel and lodging for the family: $80 • Hospital stay (5 nights): $1,050 Thanks for being kind about this. - Natalia
