Ian was diagnosed with a hip fracture that never healed properly in August. The surgeon at San Francisco Regional Medical Center recommended septoplasty, and He is scheduled for October. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $8,500, and after what my insurance will pay we're still $5,050 short. my son has been in and out of San Francisco Regional Medical Center since August. The doctors say a hip fracture that never healed properly will get worse without septoplasty. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $8,500 is more than we can find. While we wait, Ian 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 12 weeks. During that time Ian 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 $5,050 goes: • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $280 • Post-operative medication: $360 • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $2,350 • Hospital stay (5 nights): $1,750 • Travel and lodging for the family: $310 Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.
