Faruk was diagnosed with a thyroid nodule that needs removal in September. The surgeon at Saint Matthew Hospital recommended cataract surgery, and He is scheduled for November. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $600, and after what my insurance will pay we're still $450 short. my son has been in and out of Saint Matthew Hospital since September. The doctors say a thyroid nodule that needs removal will get worse without cataract surgery. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $600 is more than we can find. While we wait, Faruk struggles with daily life and can't lift anything heavy. His family has taken turns caring for him, and I've cut my own work hours to be there. The recovery period is expected to take about 3 weeks. During that time Faruk 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 $450 goes: • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $310 • Physiotherapy sessions: $85 • Travel and lodging for the family: $55 Thanks for reading all this.
