London
Logan was diagnosed with a large ovarian cyst in September. The surgeon at London General Hospital recommended palate reconstruction surgery, and He is scheduled for November. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $3,750, and after what the public health scheme will pay we're still $3,000 short. my husband has been in and out of London General Hospital since September. The doctors say a large ovarian cyst will get worse without palate reconstruction surgery. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $3,750 is more than we can find. While we wait, Logan struggles with daily life and can't stand for more than ten minutes. 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 4 weeks. During that time Logan won't be able to stand for more than ten minutes, 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 $3,000 goes: • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $2,050 • Travel and lodging for the family: $360 • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $590 Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.

  • Good luck, Kennedy. Wishing Logan a smooth procedure and a full recovery. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend

    • wishing you the best, Kennedy. Get well soon. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. All the best.

      • Hang in there, Kennedy. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. Put this on a community board in Scranton this morning. God bless.

        • Hope it all works out, Kennedy. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. My father had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Thinking of London

          • Sending good thoughts. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Greetings from Sacramento.

            • I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Greetings from Riyadh

              • thinking of you. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. Love from Davao City
