Coatzacoalcos
Francisco was diagnosed with a cleft palate needing repair in May. The surgeon at Coatzacoalcos Regional Medical Center recommended gallbladder removal, and He is scheduled for September. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $1,150, and after what our health plan will pay we're still $850 short. my brother has been in and out of Coatzacoalcos Regional Medical Center since May. The doctors say a cleft palate needing repair will get worse without gallbladder removal. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $1,150 is more than we can find. While we wait, Francisco struggles with daily life and can't walk without help. 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 12 weeks. During that time Francisco won't be able to walk without help, 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 $850 goes: • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $150 • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $630 • Travel and lodging for the family: $70 I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

    You're not alone, Marisol. Wishing Francisco a smooth procedure and a full recovery. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Take care
