Help Regina pay for a partial thyroidectomy at Anaheim Orthopedic Institute
Regina needs a partial thyroidectomy at Anaheim Orthopedic Institute and the family is $6,250 short of the hospital's estimate.

Regina was diagnosed with endometriosis requiring surgery in March. The surgeon at Anaheim Orthopedic Institute recommended a partial thyroidectomy, and She is scheduled for May. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $9,000, and after what my employer's plan will pay we're still $6,250 short.
my sister has been in and out of Anaheim Orthopedic Institute since March. The doctors say endometriosis requiring surgery will get worse without a partial thyroidectomy. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $9,000 is more than we can find.
While we wait, Regina 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 3 weeks. During that time Regina 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 $6,250 goes:
• Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $3,200
• Travel and lodging for the family: $520
• Hospital stay (4 nights): $2,530
Thank you so much.

Thinking of you and your family, Bruno. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Blessings.
thinking of you, Bruno. Shared it with a few friends.
Wishing you peace, Bruno. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. All the best
praying for you. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Take care.
