Wellington was diagnosed with a herniated spinal disc in July. The surgeon at Vitória da Conquista Orthopedic Institute recommended gallbladder removal, and He is scheduled for September. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $1,450, and after what my insurance will pay we're still $1,150 short. my son has been in and out of Vitória da Conquista Orthopedic Institute since July. The doctors say a herniated spinal disc will get worse without gallbladder removal. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $1,450 is more than we can find. While we wait, Wellington 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. Rehabilitation is expected to take about 3 weeks. During that time Wellington 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 $1,150 goes: • Hospital stay (4 nights): $910 • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $145 • Travel and lodging for the family: $95 Glad we found this place.
