Bilal was diagnosed with a hip fracture that never healed properly in June. The surgeon at Saint Elizabeth Hospital recommended ACL reconstruction, and He is scheduled for September. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $1,000, and after what the government subsidy will pay we're still $800 short. my father has been in and out of Saint Elizabeth Hospital since June. The doctors say a hip fracture that never healed properly will get worse without ACL reconstruction. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $1,000 is more than we can find. While we wait, Bilal struggles with daily life and can't stand for more than ten minutes. 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 6 weeks. During that time Bilal won't be able to stand for more than ten minutes, so the costs keep growing. I'll pay the hospital and pharmacy directly and post every receipt in the updates section. Where the $800 goes: • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $370 • Travel and lodging for the family: $50 • Post-operative medication: $30 • Hospital stay (2 nights): $350 If you're reading this, thank you. - Yasir
