Hasini was diagnosed with an aortic valve defect in October. The surgeon at Dehiwala Orthopedic Institute recommended hip replacement surgery, and She is scheduled for December. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $2,400, and after what my insurance will pay we're still $1,200 short. my sister has been in and out of Dehiwala Orthopedic Institute since October. The doctors say an aortic valve defect will get worse without hip replacement surgery. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $2,400 is more than we can find. While we wait, Hasini struggles with daily life and can't climb stairs. 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 4 weeks. During that time Hasini won't be able to climb stairs, 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 $1,200 goes: • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $460 • Hospital stay (4 nights): $660 • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $80 I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

            Take care, Nadeesha. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. God bless.

            • Praying for you. Wishing Hasini a smooth procedure and a full recovery. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Blessings
