Peyton was diagnosed with a large ovarian cyst in May. The surgeon at San Diego General Hospital recommended hip replacement surgery, and She is scheduled for September. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $4,050, and after what my employer's plan will pay we're still $3,050 short. my wife has been in and out of San Diego General Hospital since May. The doctors say a large ovarian cyst will get worse without hip replacement surgery. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $4,050 is more than we can find. While we wait, Peyton 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. The recovery period is expected to take about 10 weeks. During that time Peyton won't be able to look after the children alone, 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 $3,050 goes: • Physiotherapy sessions: $800 • Hospital stay (5 nights): $1,650 • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $400 • Travel and lodging for the family: $200 With deep gratitude, Savannah

            Get well soon. After 24 years in customer support I know how hard it's to ask for anything.

            • Shared it with a few friends. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Love from Mandaue.

              • Wishing you the best. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. We're a small family in Hamburg but we're thinking of you.

                • wishing you the best. Hope the doctors have good news. My colleague had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Thinking of San Diego
