Emilia was diagnosed with a hip fracture that never healed properly in July. The surgeon at București General Hospital recommended knee replacement surgery, and She is scheduled for September. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $3,600, and after what the government subsidy will pay we're still $2,150 short. my daughter has been in and out of București General Hospital since July. The doctors say a hip fracture that never healed properly will get worse without knee replacement surgery. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $3,600 is more than we can find. While we wait, Emilia struggles with daily life and can't work a full shift. 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 6 weeks. During that time Emilia won't be able to work a full shift, so the costs keep growing. I'll pay the hospital and pharmacy directly and post every receipt in the updates section. Where the $2,150 goes: • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $730 • Hospital stay (3 nights): $850 • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $85 • Post-operative medication: $140 • Physiotherapy sessions: $250 • Travel and lodging for the family: $95 Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.
