Help Hamza pay for emergency hernia repair at Gujranwala Orthopedic Institute
A scheduled emergency hernia repair in March is out of reach without help covering $300 of the cost.

Hamza was diagnosed with a hernia that has become strangulated in December. The surgeon at Gujranwala Orthopedic Institute recommended emergency hernia repair, and He is scheduled for March. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $600, and after what the public health scheme will pay we're still $300 short.
my husband has been in and out of Gujranwala Orthopedic Institute since December. The doctors say a hernia that has become strangulated will get worse without emergency hernia repair. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $600 is more than we can find.
While we wait, Hamza struggles with daily life and can't climb stairs. 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 10 weeks. During that time Hamza won't be able to climb stairs, so the costs keep growing.
I'll pay the hospital and pharmacy directly and post every receipt in the updates section.
Where the $300 goes:
• Travel and lodging for the family: $25
• Pre-operative tests and imaging: $85
• Post-operative medication: $55
• Physiotherapy sessions: $135
With deep gratitude,
Humaira

Rooting for you, Humaira. Hope the doctors have good news. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. God bless
Hope things get better soon, Humaira. Gave what I could, wish it was more. I hope April is when things finally get easier.
Good luck, Humaira. Shared it with a few friends. Put this on a community board in Eldoret this morning. Thinking of Gujranwala.
