Manuel's septoplasty can't wait - please help us cover the bill

Manuel was diagnosed with gallstones with repeated infections in July. The surgeon at San Cristóbal de las Casas Regional Medical Center recommended septoplasty, and He is scheduled for September. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $3,100, and after what my employer's plan will pay we're still $1,850 short. my father has been in and out of San Cristóbal de las Casas Regional Medical Center since July. The doctors say gallstones with repeated infections will get worse without septoplasty. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $3,100 is more than we can find. While we wait, Manuel struggles with daily life and can't climb stairs. His family has taken turns caring for him, and I've cut my own work hours to be there. Rehabilitation is expected to take about 6 weeks. During that time Manuel won't be able to climb stairs, 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 $1,850 goes: • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $70 • Post-operative medication: $85 • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $1,350 • Travel and lodging for the family: $75 • Physiotherapy sessions: $270 I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to.
