Raymond was diagnosed with endometriosis requiring surgery in July. The surgeon at San Jose University Hospital recommended hip replacement surgery, and He is scheduled for October. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $9,500, and after what the government subsidy will pay we're still $7,200 short. my father has been in and out of San Jose University Hospital since July. The doctors say endometriosis requiring surgery will get worse without hip replacement surgery. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $9,500 is more than we can find. While we wait, Raymond 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. The recovery period is expected to take about 3 weeks. During that time Raymond 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 $7,200 goes: • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $3,650 • Hospital stay (5 nights): $2,400 • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $480 • Post-operative medication: $180 • Physiotherapy sessions: $280 • Travel and lodging for the family: $210 You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it. - Grayson
