Surgery fund for Dina: laparoscopic cyst removal in Fresno
After a hip fracture that never healed properly, Dina was cleared for laparoscopic cyst removal, but the bill is more than we can manage.

Dina was diagnosed with a hip fracture that never healed properly in August. The surgeon at Fresno Community Hospital recommended laparoscopic cyst removal, and She is scheduled for November. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $5,750, and after what the public health scheme will pay we're still $4,000 short.
my daughter has been in and out of Fresno Community Hospital since August. The doctors say a hip fracture that never healed properly will get worse without laparoscopic cyst removal. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $5,750 is more than we can find.
While we wait, Dina 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.
Rehabilitation is expected to take about 3 weeks. During that time Dina won't be able to stand for more than ten minutes, so the costs keep growing.
I'll pay the hospital and pharmacy directly and post every receipt in the updates section.
Where the $4,000 goes:
• Travel and lodging for the family: $420
• Pre-operative tests and imaging: $460
• Hospital stay (5 nights): $2,400
• Physiotherapy sessions: $380
• Post-operative medication: $340
