Been in hospital and bills piling up fast

My name is Steve I have been in the hospital with an esophageal stricture and wasn't able to eat or drink for 3 weeks before I came in have been here for 2 weeks and haven't been able to work the bills are due and medical bills will be through the roof. I just have nowhere else to turn and a friend suggested this . I set my goal at 2500 dols because I'm concerned with the everyday bills even though I know the medical will be a lot more . I will have to deal with those as they come in . I'm hoping to get better soon so I can go back to work . And I will pay it forward after I am healthy again. Thank you in advance. Steve
