Surgery fund for Courtney: laparoscopic cyst removal in Bristol

Courtney was diagnosed with a torn ligament that needs reconstruction in March. The surgeon at Bristol General Hospital recommended laparoscopic cyst removal, and She is scheduled for June. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $7,500, and after what my insurance will pay we're still $3,750 short. my daughter has been in and out of Bristol General Hospital since March. The doctors say a torn ligament that needs reconstruction will get worse without laparoscopic cyst removal. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $7,500 is more than we can find. While we wait, Courtney struggles with daily life and can't climb stairs. 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 8 weeks. During that time Courtney won't be able to climb stairs, so the costs keep growing. I'll pay the hospital and pharmacy directly and post every receipt in the updates section. Where the $3,750 goes: • Travel and lodging for the family: $330 • Hospital stay (2 nights): $1,950 • Physiotherapy sessions: $790 • Post-operative medication: $260 • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $420 Every share and every dollar helps. - Peyton
