Laparoscopic endometriosis surgery for Arthur: covering what insurance won't

Arthur was diagnosed with a deviated septum causing chronic infections in January. The surgeon at São Paulo Orthopedic Institute recommended laparoscopic endometriosis surgery, and He is scheduled for April. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $2,200, and after what the government subsidy will pay we're still $1,100 short. my husband has been in and out of São Paulo Orthopedic Institute since January. The doctors say a deviated septum causing chronic infections will get worse without laparoscopic endometriosis surgery. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $2,200 is more than we can find. While we wait, Arthur 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. Recovery is expected to take about 6 weeks. During that time Arthur 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 $1,100 goes: • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $90 • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $730 • Physiotherapy sessions: $155 • Travel and lodging for the family: $125 I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to.
