Raúl was diagnosed with osteoarthritis in the right knee in August. The surgeon at Saint Anne Hospital recommended laparoscopic endometriosis surgery, and He is scheduled for November. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $2,750, and after what my insurance will pay we're still $2,200 short. my father has been in and out of Saint Anne Hospital since August. The doctors say osteoarthritis in the right knee will get worse without laparoscopic endometriosis surgery. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $2,750 is more than we can find. While we wait, Raúl 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 8 weeks. During that time Raúl won't be able to work a full shift, 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 $2,200 goes: • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $1,200 • Hospital stay (5 nights): $380 • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $190 • Post-operative medication: $55 • Physiotherapy sessions: $220 • Travel and lodging for the family: $155 I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.
