Isaac's septoplasty can't wait - please help us cover the bill
A scheduled septoplasty in December is out of reach without help covering $4,400 of the cost.

In September I was diagnosed with a herniated spinal disc. My surgeon at Mandurah Regional Medical Center recommended septoplasty, and I have been placed on the schedule for December. The hospital's financial office gave me a written estimate of $6,250, and after what the public health scheme will pay, I'm still $4,400 short.
Doctors at Mandurah Regional Medical Center told me a herniated spinal disc will get worse without septoplasty. I work as a security guard, and I have saved what I can, but the estimate of $6,250 is far beyond what I've.
Until the surgery I can't work full days, and my hours as a security guard have already been cut. Every week of waiting means more pain and a bigger risk.
The recovery period is expected to take about 12 weeks. I'll not be able to look after the children alone during that time, so this has become a financial emergency as well as a medical one.
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 $4,400 goes:
• Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $1,550
• Hospital stay (4 nights): $1,250
• Pre-operative tests and imaging: $630
• Post-operative medication: $220
• Physiotherapy sessions: $410
• Travel and lodging for the family: $340
I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

Updates from Isaac
Thank you all. We're at 29% now ($1,279). I'm honestly stunned. the plan for post-operative medication is now scheduled.
Quick update: $647 raised so far (15%). I made the first payment toward physiotherapy sessions. Receipts coming as soon as I have them.
