Palate reconstruction surgery for Daniela: covering what insurance won't

Daniela was diagnosed with osteoarthritis in the right knee in April. The surgeon at Ciudad de México General Hospital recommended palate reconstruction surgery, and She is scheduled for June. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $2,300, and after what the government subsidy will pay we're still $1,600 short.
my daughter has been in and out of Ciudad de México General Hospital since April. The doctors say osteoarthritis in the right knee will get worse without palate reconstruction surgery. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $2,300 is more than we can find.
While we wait, Daniela 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.
The recovery period is expected to take about 10 weeks. During that time Daniela 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 $1,600 goes:
• Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $1,300
• Travel and lodging for the family: $110
• Pre-operative tests and imaging: $85
• Physiotherapy sessions: $105
Thanks for being kind about this.
