Rohan's valve repair surgery can't wait - please help us cover the bill

Rohan was diagnosed with a hernia that has become strangulated in June. The surgeon at Saint Elizabeth Hospital recommended valve repair surgery, and He is scheduled for September. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $1,400, and after what our health plan will pay we're still $700 short. my brother has been in and out of Saint Elizabeth Hospital since June. The doctors say a hernia that has become strangulated will get worse without valve repair surgery. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $1,400 is more than we can find. While we wait, Rohan struggles with daily life and can't walk without help. His family has taken turns caring for him, and I've cut my own work hours to be there. Recovery is expected to take about 6 weeks. During that time Rohan 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: • Physiotherapy sessions: $125 • Post-operative medication: $50 • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $470 • Travel and lodging for the family: $55 Thank you so much.
