Viktor's valve repair surgery can't wait - please help us cover the bill

Viktor was diagnosed with a benign brain tumor in December. The surgeon at Zaporizhzhia University Hospital recommended valve repair surgery, and He is scheduled for March. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $2,900, and after what my employer's plan will pay we're still $1,450 short. my father has been in and out of Zaporizhzhia University Hospital since December. The doctors say a benign brain tumor will get worse without valve repair surgery. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $2,900 is more than we can find. While we wait, Viktor struggles with daily life and can't climb stairs. His family has taken turns caring for him, and I've cut my own work hours to be there. Rehabilitation is expected to take about 4 weeks. During that time Viktor won't be able to climb stairs, 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 $1,450 goes: • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $470 • Physiotherapy sessions: $155 • Hospital stay (2 nights): $720 • Post-operative medication: $105 I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.
