In August I was diagnosed with a cleft palate needing repair. My surgeon at Saint Luke Hospital recommended laparoscopic endometriosis surgery, and I have been placed on the schedule for November. The hospital's financial office gave me a written estimate of $6,750, and after what the public health scheme will pay, I'm still $4,050 short. Doctors at Saint Luke Hospital told me a cleft palate needing repair will get worse without laparoscopic endometriosis surgery. I work as a retail assistant, and I have saved what I can, but the estimate of $6,750 is far beyond what I've. Until the surgery I can't work full days, and my hours as a retail assistant have already been cut. Every week of waiting means more pain and a bigger risk. Rehabilitation is expected to take about 4 weeks. I'll not be able to climb stairs during that time, so this has become a financial emergency as well as a medical one. I'll pay the hospital and pharmacy directly and post every receipt in the updates section. Where the $4,050 goes: • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $2,300 • Hospital stay (3 nights): $1,000 • Physiotherapy sessions: $350 • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $180 • Post-operative medication: $220 Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself. - Yusuf
