Vitaly's palate reconstruction surgery can't wait - please help us cover the bill

Vitaly was diagnosed with a torn ligament that needs reconstruction in April. The surgeon at Kazan Regional Medical Center recommended palate reconstruction surgery, and He is scheduled for August. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $3,450, and after what my employer's plan will pay we're still $2,400 short. my father has been in and out of Kazan Regional Medical Center since April. The doctors say a torn ligament that needs reconstruction will get worse without palate reconstruction surgery. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $3,450 is more than we can find. While we wait, Vitaly struggles with daily life and can't walk without help. 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 3 weeks. During that time Vitaly won't be able to walk without help, so the costs keep growing. I'll pay the hospital and pharmacy directly and post every receipt in the updates section. Where the $2,400 goes: • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $970 • Hospital stay (2 nights): $850 • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $210 • Post-operative medication: $90 • Physiotherapy sessions: $105 • Travel and lodging for the family: $175 I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.
