Vadym was diagnosed with a cleft palate needing repair in August. The surgeon at Moscow Orthopedic Institute recommended a partial thyroidectomy, and He is scheduled for November. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $4,150, and after what the public health scheme will pay we're still $2,500 short. my son has been in and out of Moscow Orthopedic Institute since August. The doctors say a cleft palate needing repair will get worse without a partial thyroidectomy. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $4,150 is more than we can find. While we wait, Vadym 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. The recovery period is expected to take about 7 weeks. During that time Vadym 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 $2,500 goes: • Travel and lodging for the family: $120 • Hospital stay (2 nights): $1,050 • Post-operative medication: $105 • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $75 • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $1,150 Every share and every dollar helps.
