Help me pay for septoplasty at Saint Anne Hospital
Jennifer needs septoplasty at Saint Anne Hospital and the family is $4,950 short of the hospital's estimate.

In July I was diagnosed with a cleft palate needing repair. My surgeon at Saint Anne Hospital recommended septoplasty, and I have been placed on the schedule for October. The hospital's financial office gave me a written estimate of $6,250, and after what the government subsidy will pay, I'm still $4,950 short.
Doctors at Saint Anne Hospital told me a cleft palate needing repair will get worse without septoplasty. I work as a farm laborer, and I have saved what I can, but the estimate of $6,250 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.
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.
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 $4,950 goes:
• Pre-operative tests and imaging: $580
• Travel and lodging for the family: $380
• Post-operative medication: $260
• Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $1,800
• Hospital stay (5 nights): $1,930
I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to.
