In August I was diagnosed with a hip fracture that never healed properly. My surgeon at Fayetteville Orthopedic Institute recommended a craniotomy, and I have been placed on the schedule for October. The hospital's financial office gave me a written estimate of $8,500, and after what my insurance will pay, I'm still $6,850 short. Doctors at Fayetteville Orthopedic Institute told me a hip fracture that never healed properly will get worse without a craniotomy. I work as a hotel cleaner, and I have saved what I can, but the estimate of $8,500 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. Rehabilitation is expected to take about 12 weeks. I'll not be able to walk without help 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 $6,850 goes: • Hospital stay (5 nights): $3,350 • Post-operative medication: $450 • Travel and lodging for the family: $390 • Physiotherapy sessions: $510 • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $2,150 Thanks for reading all this.
