Rita was diagnosed with a cleft palate needing repair in September. The surgeon at Saint Francis Hospital recommended hip replacement surgery, and She is scheduled for November. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $880, and after what the public health scheme will pay we're still $700 short. my wife has been in and out of Saint Francis Hospital since September. The doctors say a cleft palate needing repair will get worse without hip replacement surgery. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $880 is more than we can find. While we wait, Rita struggles with daily life and can't walk without help. Her family has taken turns caring for her, and I've cut my own work hours to be there. Rehabilitation is expected to take about 12 weeks. During that time Rita won't be able to walk without help, 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 $700 goes: โ€ข Physiotherapy sessions: $115 โ€ข Post-operative medication: $20 โ€ข Pre-operative tests and imaging: $75 โ€ข Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $490 You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it. - Sanjay
