Laparoscopic endometriosis surgery for Tatiana: covering what insurance won't
Tatiana needs laparoscopic endometriosis surgery at Kazan Orthopedic Institute and the family is $1,800 short of the hospital's estimate.

Tatiana was diagnosed with a thyroid nodule that needs removal in May. The surgeon at Kazan Orthopedic Institute recommended laparoscopic endometriosis surgery, and She is scheduled for August. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $3,000, and after what the public health scheme will pay we're still $1,800 short.
my daughter has been in and out of Kazan Orthopedic Institute since May. The doctors say a thyroid nodule that needs removal will get worse without laparoscopic endometriosis surgery. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $3,000 is more than we can find.
While we wait, Tatiana struggles with daily life and can't walk without help. Her family has taken turns caring for her, and I've cut my own work hours to be there.
Rehabilitation is expected to take about 5 weeks. During that time Tatiana won't be able to walk without help, 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 $1,800 goes:
• Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $660
• Hospital stay (3 nights): $630
• Pre-operative tests and imaging: $120
• Post-operative medication: $65
• Physiotherapy sessions: $145
• Travel and lodging for the family: $180

Sending love, Diana. Hope this works out for you. My husband and I read this together.
Wishing you the best. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. Sent it to 35 people at work.
Sending good thoughts. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Greetings from Flint.
Hang in there, Diana. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected
Sending love, Diana. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Take care.
So sorry you're going through this. Shared it with a few friends. After 14 years in accounting I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Thinking of Kazan.
you're not alone, Diana. It takes guts to ask. Well done.
best of luck, Diana. Hope you get there. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Thinking of Kazan.
Shared this with my family. Love from Vancouver
