Mauricio's a craniotomy can't wait - please help us cover the bill

Mauricio was diagnosed with a torn ligament that needs reconstruction in March. The surgeon at Buenos Aires Regional Medical Center recommended a craniotomy, and He is scheduled for June. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $920, and after what our health plan will pay we're still $550 short. my father has been in and out of Buenos Aires Regional Medical Center since March. The doctors say a torn ligament that needs reconstruction will get worse without a craniotomy. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $920 is more than we can find. While we wait, Mauricio 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. Recovery is expected to take about 6 weeks. During that time Mauricio 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 $550 goes: • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $105 • Hospital stay (3 nights): $390 • Post-operative medication: $55 I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.
