Graciela was diagnosed with endometriosis requiring surgery in August. The surgeon at Alcalá de Henares General Hospital recommended palate reconstruction surgery, and She is scheduled for October. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $6,000, and after what the government subsidy will pay we're still $3,000 short. my daughter has been in and out of Alcalá de Henares General Hospital since August. The doctors say endometriosis requiring surgery will get worse without palate reconstruction surgery. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $6,000 is more than we can find. While we wait, Graciela struggles with daily life and can't walk without help. Her family has taken turns caring for her, and I've cut my own work hours to be there. The recovery period is expected to take about 6 weeks. During that time Graciela won't be able to walk without help, so the costs keep growing. I'll pay the hospital and pharmacy directly and post every receipt in the updates section. Where the $3,000 goes: • Hospital stay (3 nights): $1,150 • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $200 • Post-operative medication: $165 • Travel and lodging for the family: $115 • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $1,370 Thank you for reading my story. - Mauricio
