Surgery fund for Simone: septoplasty in Campinas

Simone was diagnosed with a thyroid nodule that needs removal in April. The surgeon at Campinas Community Hospital recommended septoplasty, and She is scheduled for July. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $500, and after what the public health scheme will pay we're still $300 short. my wife has been in and out of Campinas Community Hospital since April. The doctors say a thyroid nodule that needs removal will get worse without septoplasty. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $500 is more than we can find. While we wait, Simone struggles with daily life and can't drive. 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 10 weeks. During that time Simone won't be able to drive, 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 $300 goes: • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $185 • Post-operative medication: $70 • Travel and lodging for the family: $45 Thank you so much.
