Shima was diagnosed with a deviated septum causing chronic infections in January. The surgeon at Saint Luke Hospital recommended laparoscopic endometriosis surgery, and She is scheduled for March. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $380, and after what my employer's plan will pay we're still $300 short. my sister has been in and out of Saint Luke Hospital since January. The doctors say a deviated septum causing chronic infections will get worse without laparoscopic endometriosis surgery. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $380 is more than we can find. While we wait, Shima struggles with daily life and can't walk without help. 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 Shima won't be able to walk without help, 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 $300 goes: • Physiotherapy sessions: $50 • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $55 • Hospital stay (4 nights): $195 Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure. - Bithi

    Wishing Shima a smooth procedure and a full recovery. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected.
