A scheduled emergency hernia repair in August is out of reach without help covering $7,300 of the cost.

In May I was diagnosed with endometriosis requiring surgery. My surgeon at Riverside General Hospital recommended emergency hernia repair, and I have been placed on the schedule for August. The hospital's financial office gave me a written estimate of $12,250, and after what my insurance will pay, I'm still $7,300 short. Doctors at Riverside General Hospital told me endometriosis requiring surgery will get worse without emergency hernia repair. I work as a retail assistant, and I have saved what I can, but the estimate of $12,250 is far beyond what I've. Until the surgery I can't work full days, and my hours as a retail assistant have already been cut. Every week of waiting means more pain and a bigger risk. Recovery is expected to take about 5 weeks. I'll not be able to climb stairs 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 $7,300 goes: • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $3,900 • Hospital stay (3 nights): $1,500 • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $750 • Post-operative medication: $160 • Physiotherapy sessions: $550 • Travel and lodging for the family: $440 With deep gratitude, Tyler
