Víctor was diagnosed with a large ovarian cyst in December. The surgeon at Saint Anne Hospital recommended ACL reconstruction, and He is scheduled for April. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $11,750, and after what my insurance will pay we're still $8,800 short. my son has been in and out of Saint Anne Hospital since December. The doctors say a large ovarian cyst will get worse without ACL reconstruction. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $11,750 is more than we can find. While we wait, Víctor 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 6 weeks. During that time Víctor 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 $8,800 goes: • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $260 • Hospital stay (5 nights): $3,600 • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $3,600 • Travel and lodging for the family: $450 • Physiotherapy sessions: $890 Glad we found this place. - Luis

    Sending strength. I hope things turn around soon. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. God bless.

    • Thinking of you. Wishing Víctor a smooth procedure and a full recovery.

      • Stay strong, Luis. It takes guts to ask. Well done. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double
