Help me pay for laparoscopic cyst removal at Niterói University Hospital

In July I was diagnosed with a herniated spinal disc. My surgeon at Niterói University Hospital recommended laparoscopic cyst removal, and I have been placed on the schedule for October. The hospital's financial office gave me a written estimate of $3,200, and after what the government subsidy will pay, I'm still $2,400 short. Doctors at Niterói University Hospital told me a herniated spinal disc will get worse without laparoscopic cyst removal. I work as a retail assistant, and I have saved what I can, but the estimate of $3,200 is far beyond what I've. Until the surgery I can't work full days, and my hours as a retail assistant have already been cut. Every week of waiting means more pain and a bigger risk. Rehabilitation is expected to take about 10 weeks. I'll not be able to climb stairs during that time, so this has become a financial emergency as well as a medical one. I'll pay the hospital and pharmacy directly and post every receipt in the updates section. Where the $2,400 goes: • Physiotherapy sessions: $200 • Hospital stay (3 nights): $1,150 • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $160 • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $890 Glad we found this place. - Murilo
