Help Hana pay for emergency hernia repair at Cairo University Hospital
Hana needs emergency hernia repair at Cairo University Hospital and the family is $900 short of the hospital's estimate.

Hana was diagnosed with a deviated septum causing chronic infections in November. The surgeon at Cairo University Hospital recommended emergency hernia repair, and She is scheduled for March. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $1,800, and after what our health plan will pay we're still $900 short.
my sister has been in and out of Cairo University Hospital since November. The doctors say a deviated septum causing chronic infections will get worse without emergency hernia repair. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $1,800 is more than we can find.
While we wait, Hana struggles with daily life and can't look after the children alone. 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 Hana 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 $900 goes:
• Post-operative medication: $70
• Travel and lodging for the family: $35
• Pre-operative tests and imaging: $45
• Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $400
• Hospital stay (4 nights): $350
With deep gratitude,
Omar
