Istanbul
Enes was diagnosed with a cleft palate needing repair in July. The surgeon at Istanbul Community Hospital recommended cataract surgery, and He is scheduled for September. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $4,100, and after what our health plan will pay we're still $2,050 short. my father has been in and out of Istanbul Community Hospital since July. The doctors say a cleft palate needing repair will get worse without cataract surgery. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $4,100 is more than we can find. While we wait, Enes struggles with daily life and can't work a full shift. His family has taken turns caring for him, and I've cut my own work hours to be there. Recovery is expected to take about 7 weeks. During that time Enes won't be able to work a full shift, 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 $2,050 goes: • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $125 • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $1,050 • Hospital stay (5 nights): $600 • Travel and lodging for the family: $95 • Physiotherapy sessions: $180 Glad we found this place.
