Help fund Jila’s emergency spinal surgery

Donation protected
Please help my friend Jila to stay mobile and walking.
She has got 5 slipped lumbar discs 1 of which is herniated, I have been with her to all of the doctors appointments as her translator and the situation is extremely urgent.
The herniated/ruptured disc has slipped so far that it is blocking the hole where the nerves pass through to her leg.
The neurosurgeon said, a month ago, that immediate surgery is necessary.  We have spent  the last month trying to get the insurance company to cover the expenses of the surgery.  They refuse to pay for the necessary operation until June 2019. The neurosurgeon has explained that it needs to happen immediately or Jila could become  immobile indefinitely. She said no flying and even coughing could have serious consequences. I’m fed up of the waiting situation. If I could afford it I would pay for the procedure myself. As I am unable to, I have decided to create this go fund me.
I look forward to many years of laughs, luscious dinners and delights shared and prepared with Jila.
Please help me make that happen
The surgery is quoted at 9000€
And then 2 months rehabilitation so I have put our goal at 12000€
Any and all help will be greatly appreciated.
