Kyiv
Olga was diagnosed with an aortic valve defect in April. The surgeon at Kyiv Regional Medical Center recommended emergency hernia repair, and She is scheduled for June. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $2,100, and after what the public health scheme will pay we're still $1,050 short. my daughter has been in and out of Kyiv Regional Medical Center since April. The doctors say an aortic valve defect will get worse without emergency hernia repair. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $2,100 is more than we can find. While we wait, Olga struggles with daily life and can't lift anything heavy. 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 6 weeks. During that time Olga won't be able to lift anything heavy, 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 $1,050 goes: • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $410 • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $105 • Post-operative medication: $55 • Physiotherapy sessions: $140 • Hospital stay (4 nights): $340 I hope life is good to you.
