Serena's laparoscopic cyst removal can't wait - please help us cover the bill

In July I was diagnosed with a hip fracture that never healed properly. My surgeon at Verona Regional Medical Center recommended laparoscopic cyst removal, and I have been placed on the schedule for October. The hospital's financial office gave me a written estimate of $1,700, and after what the government subsidy will pay, I'm still $850 short. Doctors at Verona Regional Medical Center told me a hip fracture that never healed properly will get worse without laparoscopic cyst removal. I work as a seamstress, and I have saved what I can, but the estimate of $1,700 is far beyond what I've. Until the surgery I can't work full days, and my hours as a seamstress have already been cut. Every week of waiting means more pain and a bigger risk. The recovery period is expected to take about 5 weeks. I'll not be able to walk without help during that time, so this has become a financial emergency as well as a medical one. 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 $850 goes: • Physiotherapy sessions: $380 • Travel and lodging for the family: $260 • Post-operative medication: $210 Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.
