Madelyn was diagnosed with a deviated septum causing chronic infections in December. The surgeon at Laredo University Hospital recommended laparoscopic endometriosis surgery, and She is scheduled for March. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $4,450, and after what the public health scheme will pay we're still $3,350 short. my mother has been in and out of Laredo University Hospital since December. 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 $4,450 is more than we can find. While we wait, Madelyn struggles with daily life and can't stand for more than ten minutes. Her family has taken turns caring for her, and I've cut my own work hours to be there. Recovery is expected to take about 8 weeks. During that time Madelyn won't be able to stand for more than ten minutes, 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 $3,350 goes: • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $2,300 • Physiotherapy sessions: $460 • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $310 • Post-operative medication: $280 Thanks for being kind about this. - James
