After a cleft palate needing repair, Landon was cleared for a partial thyroidectomy, but the bill is more than we can manage.

Landon was diagnosed with a cleft palate needing repair in August. The surgeon at Liverpool University Hospital recommended a partial thyroidectomy, and He is scheduled for October. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $8,000, and after what my employer's plan will pay we're still $5,950 short.
my husband has been in and out of Liverpool University Hospital since August. The doctors say a cleft palate needing repair will get worse without a partial thyroidectomy. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $8,000 is more than we can find.
While we wait, Landon struggles with daily life and can't look after the children alone. His family has taken turns caring for him, and I've cut my own work hours to be there.
The recovery period is expected to take about 4 weeks. During that time Landon 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 $5,950 goes:
• Pre-operative tests and imaging: $220
• Hospital stay (3 nights): $2,850
• Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $1,950
• Physiotherapy sessions: $620
• Travel and lodging for the family: $310

is there anything that isn't money that would help Landon?
Rooting for you, Randall. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Take care.
Stay strong, Randall. I hope things turn around soon. Sent it to 37 people at work. Blessings.
You're not alone, Randall. Shared this with my family. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Greetings from Bogotá
Wishing you peace. Hope this works out for you. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Take care.
