Raluca was diagnosed with osteoarthritis in the right knee in July. The surgeon at Cluj-Napoca University Hospital recommended emergency hernia repair, and She is scheduled for October. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $1,050, and after what the public health scheme will pay we're still $850 short. my mother has been in and out of Cluj-Napoca University Hospital since July. The doctors say osteoarthritis in the right knee will get worse without emergency hernia repair. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $1,050 is more than we can find. While we wait, Raluca 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. Recovery is expected to take about 4 weeks. During that time Raluca 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 $850 goes: • Travel and lodging for the family: $105 • Physiotherapy sessions: $115 • Hospital stay (2 nights): $630 Thanks for being kind about this.

    Best of luck, Petru. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Sent it to 33 people at work.

          Everything on the list is an amount I've been quoted or invoiced. travel and lodging for the family comes first ($105) and I'll update the page as each thing gets paid.
