Lucky's ACL reconstruction can't wait - please help us cover the bill

Lucky was diagnosed with an aortic valve defect in August. The surgeon at Wudil General Hospital recommended ACL reconstruction, and He is scheduled for December. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $630, and after what the public health scheme will pay we're still $500 short. my son has been in and out of Wudil General Hospital since August. The doctors say an aortic valve defect will get worse without ACL reconstruction. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $630 is more than we can find. While we wait, Lucky 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 6 weeks. During that time Lucky won't be able to work a full shift, so the costs keep growing. I'll pay the hospital and pharmacy directly and post every receipt in the updates section. Where the $500 goes: • Post-operative medication: $35 • Travel and lodging for the family: $50 • Hospital stay (5 nights): $330 • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $85 Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.
