Help me pay for laparoscopic cyst removal at Epe Orthopedic Institute

In August I was diagnosed with a torn ligament that needs reconstruction. My surgeon at Epe Orthopedic Institute recommended laparoscopic cyst removal, and I have been placed on the schedule for November. The hospital's financial office gave me a written estimate of $1,000, and after what the public health scheme will pay, I'm still $700 short. Doctors at Epe Orthopedic Institute told me a torn ligament that needs reconstruction will get worse without laparoscopic cyst removal. I work as a seamstress, and I have saved what I can, but the estimate of $1,000 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. The recovery period is expected to take about 7 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 $700 goes: • Physiotherapy sessions: $40 • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $360 • Hospital stay (2 nights): $300 If you're reading this, thank you.
