Sakai
Isamu was diagnosed with a hip fracture that never healed properly in January. The surgeon at Sakai Regional Medical Center recommended hip replacement surgery, and He is scheduled for April. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $3,550, and after what my employer's plan will pay we're still $2,650 short. my son has been in and out of Sakai Regional Medical Center since January. The doctors say a hip fracture that never healed properly will get worse without hip replacement surgery. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $3,550 is more than we can find. While we wait, Isamu struggles with daily life and can't work a full shift. 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 Isamu won't be able to work a full shift, 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 $2,650 goes: • Travel and lodging for the family: $160 • Hospital stay (3 nights): $2,150 • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $200 • Post-operative medication: $140 I hope life is good to you.
