Wolfgang was diagnosed with severe cataracts in both eyes in August. The surgeon at Munich University Hospital recommended gallbladder removal, and He is scheduled for November. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $4,500, and after what my employer's plan will pay we're still $2,250 short. my son has been in and out of Munich University Hospital since August. The doctors say severe cataracts in both eyes will get worse without gallbladder removal. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $4,500 is more than we can find. While we wait, Wolfgang 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. Rehabilitation is expected to take about 8 weeks. During that time Wolfgang 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 $2,250 goes: • Hospital stay (2 nights): $1,450 • Physiotherapy sessions: $350 • Post-operative medication: $115 • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $335 Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.
