Kylie's spinal decompression surgery can't wait - please help us cover the bill

Kylie was diagnosed with a hernia that has become strangulated in August. The surgeon at Cleveland Community Hospital recommended spinal decompression surgery, and She is scheduled for November. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $5,000, and after what my employer's plan will pay we're still $4,000 short. my wife has been in and out of Cleveland Community Hospital since August. The doctors say a hernia that has become strangulated will get worse without spinal decompression surgery. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $5,000 is more than we can find. While we wait, Kylie struggles with daily life and can't climb stairs. Her family has taken turns caring for her, and I've cut my own work hours to be there. The recovery period is expected to take about 8 weeks. During that time Kylie 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 $4,000 goes: • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $260 • Physiotherapy sessions: $540 • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $3,200 Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.
