Help Mia pay for valve repair surgery at Frankfurt University Hospital
Mia needs valve repair surgery at Frankfurt University Hospital and the family is $3,800 short of the hospital's estimate.
🇩🇪 Frankfurt, Hesse, Germany3,109 views
Mia was diagnosed with a large ovarian cyst in January. The surgeon at Frankfurt University Hospital recommended valve repair surgery, and She is scheduled for April. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $5,000, and after what my employer's plan will pay we're still $3,800 short.
my daughter has been in and out of Frankfurt University Hospital since January. The doctors say a large ovarian cyst will get worse without valve repair surgery. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $5,000 is more than we can find.
While we wait, Mia struggles with daily life and can't lift anything heavy. Her family has taken turns caring for her, and I've cut my own work hours to be there.
Rehabilitation is expected to take about 3 weeks. During that time Mia won't be able to lift anything heavy, so the costs keep growing.
I'll pay the hospital and pharmacy directly and post every receipt in the updates section.
Where the $3,800 goes:
• Physiotherapy sessions: $610
• Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $2,700
• Pre-operative tests and imaging: $490
I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to.

Keep going. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Wish I lived closer to Nakuru so I could bring a meal. Blessings.
Thinking of you and your family. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. We're a small family in East London but we're thinking of you.
Sending good thoughts, Ben. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. Wish I lived closer to Berlin so I could bring a meal. Greetings from Barcelona
