Arda was diagnosed with a cleft palate needing repair in August. The surgeon at Saint Anne Hospital recommended septoplasty, and He is scheduled for December. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $3,200, and after what my insurance will pay we're still $1,600 short.
my son has been in and out of Saint Anne Hospital since August. The doctors say a cleft palate needing repair will get worse without septoplasty. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $3,200 is more than we can find.
While we wait, Arda struggles with daily life and can't look after the children alone. His family has taken turns caring for him, and I've cut my own work hours to be there.
Rehabilitation is expected to take about 3 weeks. During that time Arda won't be able to look after the children alone, 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 $1,600 goes:
• Hospital stay (5 nights): $550
• Post-operative medication: $70
• Physiotherapy sessions: $120
• Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $860

Sending strength. Hope you get there. My neighbor in Port Harcourt donated after I showed her your page. Love from Port Harcourt.
Is hospital stay (5 nights) the biggest cost or is there more coming?
thinking of you and your family, Gizem. Hope this works out for you. Blessings
Can I help in a way that isn't money? I'm near İzmir
Sharing the link is the biggest thing. And if you know anything about hospital stay (5 nights), advice is welcome too. Let me know if you want more detail.
Hope things get better soon, Gizem. Hope you get there. My neighbor had a similar thing happen so this one hit home
stay strong, Gizem. Hope this works out for you. Greetings from Agra
How is Arda doing now?
Hang in there, Gizem. Hope this works out for you. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Love from Albany.
Best of luck. I hope things turn around soon. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Love from Ankara.
Hang in there, Gizem. Shared it with a few friends
Shared this with my family. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. Thinking of İzmir.
Sending love, Gizem. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected.
thinking of you and your family. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like.
