A scheduled laparoscopic endometriosis surgery in March is out of reach without help covering $7,100 of the cost.

Soledad was diagnosed with gallstones with repeated infections in November. The surgeon at Columbus Orthopedic Institute recommended laparoscopic endometriosis surgery, and She is scheduled for March. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $14,250, and after what the public health scheme will pay we're still $7,100 short.
my daughter has been in and out of Columbus Orthopedic Institute since November. The doctors say gallstones with repeated infections will get worse without laparoscopic endometriosis surgery. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $14,250 is more than we can find.
While we wait, Soledad struggles with daily life and can't work a full shift. 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 8 weeks. During that time Soledad won't be able to work a full shift, so the costs keep growing.
I'll pay the hospital and pharmacy directly and post every receipt in the updates section.
Where the $7,100 goes:
• Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $3,150
• Hospital stay (2 nights): $2,200
• Pre-operative tests and imaging: $510
• Post-operative medication: $350
• Physiotherapy sessions: $460
• Travel and lodging for the family: $430
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. I'm in engineering myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Thinking of Columbus.
Hang in there, Salvador. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Wish I lived closer to Sylhet so I could bring a meal!
It takes guts to ask. Well done. My neighbor in Jabalpur donated after I showed her your page. Love from Jabalpur.
