Rowan was diagnosed with an aortic valve defect in August. The surgeon at San Francisco University Hospital recommended hip replacement surgery, and He is scheduled for November. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $9,000, and after what our health plan will pay we're still $5,450 short.
my father has been in and out of San Francisco University Hospital since August. The doctors say an aortic valve defect will get worse without hip replacement surgery. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $9,000 is more than we can find.
While we wait, Rowan struggles with daily life and can't drive. His family has taken turns caring for him, and I've cut my own work hours to be there.
Recovery is expected to take about 7 weeks. During that time Rowan won't be able to drive, 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 $5,450 goes:
• Physiotherapy sessions: $330
• Hospital stay (4 nights): $1,400
• Pre-operative tests and imaging: $300
• Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $3,420
With deep gratitude,
Jaxon

Good luck. Shared this with my family. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Thinking of San Francisco.

Hang in there, Jaxon. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Blessings

Hope things get better soon. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Thinking of San Francisco.
