Eoin was diagnosed with endometriosis requiring surgery in September. The surgeon at Kilkenny Community Hospital recommended laparoscopic endometriosis surgery, and He is scheduled for January. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $8,750, and after what my employer's plan will pay we're still $6,150 short. my father has been in and out of Kilkenny Community Hospital since September. The doctors say endometriosis requiring surgery will get worse without laparoscopic endometriosis surgery. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $8,750 is more than we can find. While we wait, Eoin struggles with daily life and can't work a full shift. 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 7 weeks. During that time Eoin won't be able to work a full shift, 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 $6,150 goes: • Hospital stay (5 nights): $3,550 • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $500 • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $1,950 • Post-operative medication: $150 Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot. - Saoirse
