Olivia was diagnosed with a torn ligament that needs reconstruction in December. The surgeon at Glasgow Regional Medical Center recommended ACL reconstruction, and She is scheduled for February. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $10,750, and after what our health plan will pay we're still $6,400 short. my wife has been in and out of Glasgow Regional Medical Center since December. The doctors say a torn ligament that needs reconstruction will get worse without ACL reconstruction. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $10,750 is more than we can find. While we wait, Olivia 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 10 weeks. During that time Olivia 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 $6,400 goes: • Physiotherapy sessions: $590 • Post-operative medication: $300 • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $2,950 • Hospital stay (2 nights): $2,300 • Travel and lodging for the family: $260 Every share and every dollar helps. - Daniel

Updates from Daniel

  1. Thank you all. We're at 14% now ($908). I'm honestly stunned. the first invoice got paid this week.

  2. Good news. Because of your gifts ($813 in total) we've booked the dates and paid the deposit. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.

  3. Update from Glasgow: I met with the hospital and confirmed the amounts. We're at 4% of the goal. Thank you for believing in us.
