Basma's ACL reconstruction can't wait - please help us cover the bill

Basma was diagnosed with osteoarthritis in the right knee in August. The surgeon at Cairo General Hospital recommended ACL reconstruction, and She is scheduled for October. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $1,800, and after what my insurance will pay we're still $900 short. my daughter has been in and out of Cairo General Hospital since August. The doctors say osteoarthritis in the right knee will get worse without ACL reconstruction. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $1,800 is more than we can find. While we wait, Basma struggles with daily life and can't work a full shift. Her family has taken turns caring for her, and I've cut my own work hours to be there. Recovery is expected to take about 5 weeks. During that time Basma won't be able to work a full shift, so the costs keep growing. I'll pay the hospital and pharmacy directly and post every receipt in the updates section. Where the $900 goes: • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $300 • Post-operative medication: $65 • Hospital stay (2 nights): $450 • Physiotherapy sessions: $85 Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.
