Help me pay for palate reconstruction surgery at Londrina Regional Medical Center
A scheduled palate reconstruction surgery in December is out of reach without help covering $600 of the cost.

In October I was diagnosed with an aortic valve defect. My surgeon at Londrina Regional Medical Center recommended palate reconstruction surgery, and I have been placed on the schedule for December. The hospital's financial office gave me a written estimate of $1,200, and after what the public health scheme will pay, I'm still $600 short.
Doctors at Londrina Regional Medical Center told me an aortic valve defect will get worse without palate reconstruction surgery. I work as a market vendor, and I have saved what I can, but the estimate of $1,200 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 6 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.
I'll pay the hospital and pharmacy directly and post every receipt in the updates section.
Where the $600 goes:
• Physiotherapy sessions: $180
• Travel and lodging for the family: $150
• Pre-operative tests and imaging: $195
• Post-operative medication: $75
Thanks for being kind about this.

you're not alone, Juliana. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick.
Praying for you, Juliana. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Thinking of Londrina.
