Werner was diagnosed with a cleft palate needing repair in May. The surgeon at Berlin University Hospital recommended laparoscopic cyst removal, and He is scheduled for July. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $2,400, and after what the government subsidy will pay we're still $1,900 short. my husband has been in and out of Berlin University Hospital since May. The doctors say a cleft palate needing repair will get worse without laparoscopic cyst removal. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $2,400 is more than we can find. While we wait, Werner struggles with daily life and can't lift anything heavy. His family has taken turns caring for him, and I've cut my own work hours to be there. Recovery is expected to take about 10 weeks. During that time Werner won't be able to lift anything heavy, so the costs keep growing. I'll pay the hospital and pharmacy directly and post every receipt in the updates section. Where the $1,900 goes: • Post-operative medication: $320 • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $250 • Physiotherapy sessions: $330 • Hospital stay (3 nights): $1,000 Thank you for reading my story.
