Help Amna pay for hip replacement surgery at Lahore Community Hospital
A scheduled hip replacement surgery in February is out of reach without help covering $400 of the cost.
🇵🇰 Lahore, Punjab, Pakistan675 views
Amna was diagnosed with a large ovarian cyst in December. The surgeon at Lahore Community Hospital recommended hip replacement surgery, and She is scheduled for February. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $800, and after what our health plan will pay we're still $400 short.
my daughter has been in and out of Lahore Community Hospital since December. The doctors say a large ovarian cyst will get worse without hip replacement surgery. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $800 is more than we can find.
While we wait, Amna struggles with daily life and can't look after the children alone. 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 5 weeks. During that time Amna won't be able to look after the children alone, so the costs keep growing.
I'll pay the hospital and pharmacy directly and post every receipt in the updates section.
Where the $400 goes:
• Pre-operative tests and imaging: $65
• Post-operative medication: $30
• Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $240
• Physiotherapy sessions: $60
• Travel and lodging for the family: $5

Keep going, Waqas. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. All the best
Thinking of you, Waqas. Hope you get there. God bless.
Stay strong. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Blessings.
Is there anything that isn't money that would help Amna?
Good luck. Shared this with my family. Thinking of Lahore.
Thinking of you, Waqas. This could happen to any of us. I'll check back for the next update.
Wishing you the best, Waqas. Hope you get there. My neighbor in Calamba donated after I showed her your page.

Sending love, Waqas. Hope the doctors have good news. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Love from Bang Khen.
