Babu was diagnosed with a torn ligament that needs reconstruction in March. The surgeon at Narayanganj Regional Medical Center recommended ACL reconstruction, and He is scheduled for May. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $670, and after what the public health scheme will pay we're still $400 short.
my brother has been in and out of Narayanganj Regional Medical Center since March. The doctors say a torn ligament that needs reconstruction will get worse without ACL reconstruction. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $670 is more than we can find.
While we wait, Babu struggles with daily life and can't walk without help. 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 8 weeks. During that time Babu won't be able to walk without help, 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 $400 goes:
• Pre-operative tests and imaging: $75
• Travel and lodging for the family: $25
• Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $300
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.
