Surgery fund for Bruno: laparoscopic endometriosis surgery in Irapuato
A scheduled laparoscopic endometriosis surgery in October is out of reach without help covering $1,350 of the cost.
🇲🇽 Irapuato, Guanajuato, Mexico3,158 views
Bruno was diagnosed with a thyroid nodule that needs removal in July. The surgeon at Irapuato General Hospital recommended laparoscopic endometriosis surgery, and He is scheduled for October. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $2,250, and after what my insurance will pay we're still $1,350 short.
my father has been in and out of Irapuato General Hospital since July. The doctors say a thyroid nodule that needs removal will get worse without laparoscopic endometriosis surgery. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $2,250 is more than we can find.
While we wait, Bruno struggles with daily life and can't look after the children alone. 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 7 weeks. During that time Bruno won't be able to look after the children alone, so the costs keep growing.
I'll pay the hospital and pharmacy directly and post every receipt in the updates section.
Where the $1,350 goes:
• Pre-operative tests and imaging: $80
• Travel and lodging for the family: $125
• Physiotherapy sessions: $130
• Post-operative medication: $130
• Hospital stay (2 nights): $885
I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

Praying for you, Regina. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. All the best!
Thanks for sharing this, Regina. Hope you get there. Thinking of Irapuato.
Take care, Regina. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it.
Wishing you peace, Regina. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. All the best.
Hang in there, Regina. I hope things turn around soon. I went through something like this 11 years ago and strangers helped me out
