Help me pay for septoplasty at London Community Hospital

A scheduled septoplasty in October is out of reach without help covering $6,600 of the cost.

In July I was diagnosed with severe cataracts in both eyes. My surgeon at London Community Hospital recommended septoplasty, and I have been placed on the schedule for October. The hospital's financial office gave me a written estimate of $8,250, and after what the government subsidy will pay, I'm still $6,600 short. Doctors at London Community Hospital told me severe cataracts in both eyes will get worse without septoplasty. I work as a farm laborer, and I have saved what I can, but the estimate of $8,250 is far beyond what I've. Until the surgery I can't work full days, and my hours as a farm laborer have already been cut. Every week of waiting means more pain and a bigger risk. Rehabilitation is expected to take about 3 weeks. I'll not be able to stand for more than ten minutes 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 $6,600 goes: • Travel and lodging for the family: $200 • Hospital stay (2 nights): $2,550 • Physiotherapy sessions: $680 • Post-operative medication: $240 • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $2,930 Glad we found this place.
