Hassan was diagnosed with a hernia that has become strangulated in July. The surgeon at Leicester University Hospital recommended knee replacement surgery, and He is scheduled for October. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $3,400, and after what the public health scheme will pay we're still $2,550 short. my husband has been in and out of Leicester University Hospital since July. The doctors say a hernia that has become strangulated will get worse without knee replacement surgery. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $3,400 is more than we can find. While we wait, Hassan struggles with daily life and can't look after the children alone. 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 Hassan won't be able to look after the children alone, so the costs keep growing. I'll pay the hospital and pharmacy directly and post every receipt in the updates section. Where the $2,550 goes: • Travel and lodging for the family: $190 • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $2,150 • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $210 Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly. - Rasha
