Adrián was diagnosed with a hip fracture that never healed properly in July. The surgeon at El Paso Community Hospital recommended laparoscopic endometriosis surgery, and He is scheduled for October. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $9,750, and after what my employer's plan will pay we're still $6,750 short. my son has been in and out of El Paso Community Hospital since July. The doctors say a hip fracture that never healed properly will get worse without laparoscopic endometriosis surgery. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $9,750 is more than we can find. While we wait, Adrián struggles with daily life and can't drive. 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 3 weeks. During that time Adrián won't be able to drive, 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 $6,750 goes: • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $400 • Post-operative medication: $170 • Hospital stay (4 nights): $2,950 • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $2,850 • Travel and lodging for the family: $380 Every share and every dollar helps. - Manuel

Updates from Manuel

  1. Thank you all. We're at 22% now ($1,506). I'm honestly stunned. I made the first payment toward pre-operative tests and imaging.
