Adel was diagnosed with a hernia that has become strangulated in May. The surgeon at 6th of October City General Hospital recommended valve repair surgery, and He is scheduled for August. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $1,650, and after what my employer's plan will pay we're still $1,250 short.
my husband has been in and out of 6th of October City General Hospital since May. The doctors say a hernia that has become strangulated will get worse without valve repair surgery. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $1,650 is more than we can find.
While we wait, Adel struggles with daily life and can't look after the children alone. His family has taken turns caring for him, and I've cut my own work hours to be there.
The recovery period is expected to take about 4 weeks. During that time Adel won't be able to look after the children alone, so the costs keep growing.
The money goes straight to the treatment bills, and I'll share the invoices as they're paid so you can see exactly what your gift did.
Where the $1,250 goes:
• Travel and lodging for the family: $50
• Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $600
• Physiotherapy sessions: $55
• Pre-operative tests and imaging: $45
• Hospital stay (4 nights): $500
Thanks for reading all this.

is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Adel.
Everything on the list is an amount I've been quoted or invoiced. travel and lodging for the family comes first ($50) and I'll update the page as each thing gets paid.
Praying for you. Your post was clear and honest. Don't give up. Take care
Take care. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. My neighbor in Khulna donated after I showed her your page. Take care.
Sending strength. I hope things turn around soon. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Love from Nha Trang.
