Help Mónica pay for emergency hernia repair at Saint Matthew Hospital
Mónica needs emergency hernia repair at Saint Matthew Hospital and the family is $1,050 short of the hospital's estimate.

Mónica was diagnosed with a herniated spinal disc in August. The surgeon at Saint Matthew Hospital recommended emergency hernia repair, and She is scheduled for November. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $2,100, and after what our health plan will pay we're still $1,050 short.
my daughter has been in and out of Saint Matthew Hospital since August. The doctors say a herniated spinal disc will get worse without emergency hernia repair. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $2,100 is more than we can find.
While we wait, Mónica struggles with daily life and can't look after the children alone. 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 8 weeks. During that time Mónica won't be able to look after the children alone, so the costs keep growing.
I'll pay the hospital and pharmacy directly and post every receipt in the updates section.
Where the $1,050 goes:
• Post-operative medication: $80
• Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $680
• Pre-operative tests and imaging: $120
• Physiotherapy sessions: $170
I hope life is good to you.

Hope things get better soon. Wishing Mónica a smooth procedure and a full recovery
Stay strong. Wishing Mónica a smooth procedure and a full recovery. I have a 14 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Thinking of Irapuato.
Praying for you, Mariana. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. It's not much but it's yours. Take care.
