Help Ximena pay for palate reconstruction surgery at Saint Anne Hospital

Ximena was diagnosed with a deviated septum causing chronic infections in July. The surgeon at Saint Anne Hospital recommended palate reconstruction surgery, and She is scheduled for October. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $12,250, and after what my employer's plan will pay we're still $7,350 short. my mother has been in and out of Saint Anne Hospital since July. The doctors say a deviated septum causing chronic infections will get worse without palate reconstruction surgery. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $12,250 is more than we can find. While we wait, Ximena struggles with daily life and can't look after the children alone. 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 12 weeks. During that time Ximena won't be able to look after the children alone, so the costs keep growing. I'll pay the hospital and pharmacy directly and post every receipt in the updates section. Where the $7,350 goes: • Physiotherapy sessions: $400 • Travel and lodging for the family: $370 • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $3,950 • Post-operative medication: $330 • Hospital stay (2 nights): $2,300 Thank you for reading my story.
