Help Farhana pay for valve repair surgery at Saint Francis Hospital

After severe cataracts in both eyes, Farhana was cleared for valve repair surgery, but the bill is more than we can manage.

Farhana was diagnosed with severe cataracts in both eyes in August. The surgeon at Saint Francis Hospital recommended valve repair surgery, and She is scheduled for October. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $880, and after what my employer's plan will pay we're still $700 short. my daughter has been in and out of Saint Francis Hospital since August. The doctors say severe cataracts in both eyes will get worse without valve repair surgery. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $880 is more than we can find. While we wait, Farhana struggles with daily life and can't drive. 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 3 weeks. During that time Farhana won't be able to drive, so the costs keep growing. I'll pay the hospital and pharmacy directly and post every receipt in the updates section. Where the $700 goes: • Physiotherapy sessions: $55 • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $45 • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $600 With deep gratitude, Parvin
