Rosa was diagnosed with a hernia that has become strangulated in August. The surgeon at Saint Mary Hospital recommended spinal decompression surgery, and She is scheduled for November. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $2,650, and after what my employer's plan will pay we're still $2,100 short. my sister has been in and out of Saint Mary Hospital since August. The doctors say a hernia that has become strangulated will get worse without spinal decompression surgery. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $2,650 is more than we can find. While we wait, Rosa struggles with daily life and can't stand for more than ten minutes. 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 7 weeks. During that time Rosa won't be able to stand for more than ten minutes, 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 $2,100 goes: β€’ Hospital stay (4 nights): $520 β€’ Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $1,250 β€’ Physiotherapy sessions: $140 β€’ Pre-operative tests and imaging: $85 β€’ Post-operative medication: $105 If you're reading this, thank you.
