Sebastian was diagnosed with osteoarthritis in the right knee in January. The surgeon at Poznań General Hospital recommended laparoscopic endometriosis surgery, and He is scheduled for March. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $1,350, and after what the government subsidy will pay we're still $1,000 short. my brother has been in and out of Poznań General Hospital since January. The doctors say osteoarthritis in the right knee will get worse without laparoscopic endometriosis surgery. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $1,350 is more than we can find. While we wait, Sebastian struggles with daily life and can't climb stairs. 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 12 weeks. During that time Sebastian won't be able to climb stairs, 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 $1,000 goes: • Post-operative medication: $160 • Travel and lodging for the family: $145 • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $695 I hope life is good to you.

    is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Sebastian

    • Ewa WitkowskiOwnerAnswerID verified

      Everything on the list is an amount I've been quoted or invoiced. post-operative medication comes first ($160) and I'll update the page as each thing gets paid. Good question.

    Good luck, Ewa. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. God bless.

          Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Thinking of Poznań.
