Las Cruces
Cynthia was diagnosed with a large ovarian cyst in July. The surgeon at Las Cruces University Hospital recommended spinal decompression surgery, and She is scheduled for November. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $6,250, and after what my insurance will pay we're still $4,450 short. my daughter has been in and out of Las Cruces University Hospital since July. The doctors say a large ovarian cyst will get worse without spinal decompression surgery. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $6,250 is more than we can find. While we wait, Cynthia struggles with daily life and can't drive. Her family has taken turns caring for her, and I've cut my own work hours to be there. Recovery is expected to take about 3 weeks. During that time Cynthia won't be able to drive, 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 $4,450 goes: • Physiotherapy sessions: $550 • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $3,450 • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $450 Thanks for being kind about this.
