Farah needs spinal decompression surgery at Peshawar Orthopedic Institute and the family is $800 short of the hospital's estimate.

Farah was diagnosed with a torn ligament that needs reconstruction in December. The surgeon at Peshawar Orthopedic Institute recommended spinal decompression surgery, and She is scheduled for March. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $1,600, and after what our health plan will pay we're still $800 short.
my wife has been in and out of Peshawar Orthopedic Institute since December. The doctors say a torn ligament that needs reconstruction will get worse without spinal decompression surgery. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $1,600 is more than we can find.
While we wait, Farah struggles with daily life and can't walk without help. Her family has taken turns caring for her, and I've cut my own work hours to be there.
Rehabilitation is expected to take about 3 weeks. During that time Farah won't be able to walk without help, 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
• Hospital stay (3 nights): $220
• Pre-operative tests and imaging: $45
• Post-operative medication: $60
• Physiotherapy sessions: $75
• Travel and lodging for the family: $30
Thanks for being kind about this.
