Help Amal pay for a craniotomy at Casablanca University Hospital
After a herniated spinal disc, Amal was cleared for a craniotomy, but the bill is more than we can manage.

Amal was diagnosed with a herniated spinal disc in January. The surgeon at Casablanca University Hospital recommended a craniotomy, and She is scheduled for April. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $1,950, and after what my employer's plan will pay we're still $1,450 short.
my daughter has been in and out of Casablanca University Hospital since January. The doctors say a herniated spinal disc will get worse without a craniotomy. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $1,950 is more than we can find.
While we wait, Amal struggles with daily life and can't lift anything heavy. 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 Amal won't be able to lift anything heavy, 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 $1,450 goes:
• Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $650
• Physiotherapy sessions: $155
• Hospital stay (4 nights): $590
• Travel and lodging for the family: $55
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.

Sending love, Hatem. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. I'm in public service myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Love from Jakarta.
good luck, Hatem. Your post was clear and honest.
You're not alone, Hatem. Wishing Amal a smooth procedure and a full recovery. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. God bless
Take care, Hatem. Your post was clear and honest. My neighbor had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Take care!
Good luck, Hatem. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. Thinking of Casablanca.
