Surgery fund for Leonardo: palate reconstruction surgery in Eugene

Leonardo was diagnosed with a deviated septum causing chronic infections in August. The surgeon at Eugene Regional Medical Center recommended palate reconstruction surgery, and He is scheduled for October. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $7,500, and after what the government subsidy will pay we're still $3,750 short. my father has been in and out of Eugene Regional Medical Center since August. The doctors say a deviated septum causing chronic infections will get worse without palate reconstruction surgery. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $7,500 is more than we can find. While we wait, Leonardo struggles with daily life and can't work a full shift. His family has taken turns caring for him, and I've cut my own work hours to be there. Recovery is expected to take about 10 weeks. During that time Leonardo 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 $3,750 goes: • Post-operative medication: $185 • Travel and lodging for the family: $165 • Physiotherapy sessions: $370 • Hospital stay (4 nights): $3,030 Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly. - Henry
