Zapopan
In February I was diagnosed with a thyroid nodule that needs removal. My surgeon at Zapopan General Hospital recommended laparoscopic endometriosis surgery, and I have been placed on the schedule for May. The hospital's financial office gave me a written estimate of $3,150, and after what the public health scheme will pay, I'm still $2,350 short. Doctors at Zapopan General Hospital told me a thyroid nodule that needs removal will get worse without laparoscopic endometriosis surgery. I work as a hotel cleaner, and I have saved what I can, but the estimate of $3,150 is far beyond what I've. Until the surgery I can't work full days, and my hours as a hotel cleaner have already been cut. Every week of waiting means more pain and a bigger risk. Recovery is expected to take about 3 weeks. I'll not be able to lift anything heavy during that time, so this has become a financial emergency as well as a medical one. 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 $2,350 goes: • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $960 • Hospital stay (5 nights): $830 • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $125 • Post-operative medication: $120 • Physiotherapy sessions: $210 • Travel and lodging for the family: $105 Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly. - Rocío

    hope the doctors have good news. After 17 years in logistics I know how hard it's to ask for anything.

    • is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Rocío
