Óscar's laparoscopic endometriosis surgery can't wait - please help us cover the bill

Óscar was diagnosed with a benign brain tumor in August. The surgeon at Saint Elizabeth Hospital recommended laparoscopic endometriosis surgery, and He is scheduled for November. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $500, and after what my insurance will pay we're still $250 short. my father has been in and out of Saint Elizabeth Hospital since August. The doctors say a benign brain tumor will get worse without laparoscopic endometriosis surgery. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $500 is more than we can find. While we wait, Óscar struggles with daily life and can't drive. 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 5 weeks. During that time Óscar won't be able to drive, 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 $250 goes: • Post-operative medication: $80 • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $75 • Travel and lodging for the family: $95 I hope life is good to you. - Ricardo
