Peyton was diagnosed with severe cataracts in both eyes in June. The surgeon at Sherbrooke Orthopedic Institute recommended a partial thyroidectomy, and She is scheduled for September. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $6,000, and after what the public health scheme will pay we're still $4,700 short. my daughter has been in and out of Sherbrooke Orthopedic Institute since June. The doctors say severe cataracts in both eyes will get worse without a partial thyroidectomy. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $6,000 is more than we can find. While we wait, Peyton struggles with daily life and can't work a full shift. 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 4 weeks. During that time Peyton won't be able to work a full shift, so the costs keep growing. 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 $4,700 goes: • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $1,850 • Hospital stay (3 nights): $2,100 • Post-operative medication: $460 • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $290 I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to. - Victoria

      Rooting for you, Victoria. Wishing Peyton a smooth procedure and a full recovery. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry.

      • Good luck. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I have a 9 year old who wants to send good wishes too

        • Thanks for sharing this, Victoria. Hope this works out for you. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money

          • Get well soon. Greetings from Yonkers.
