Help İsmail pay for cataract surgery at Ankara Orthopedic Institute

İsmail was diagnosed with a herniated spinal disc in October. The surgeon at Ankara Orthopedic Institute recommended cataract surgery, and He is scheduled for February. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $3,700, and after what my employer's plan will pay we're still $1,850 short. my brother has been in and out of Ankara Orthopedic Institute since October. The doctors say a herniated spinal disc will get worse without cataract surgery. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $3,700 is more than we can find. While we wait, İsmail 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. Rehabilitation is expected to take about 12 weeks. During that time İsmail won't be able to lift anything heavy, so the costs keep growing. I'll pay the hospital and pharmacy directly and post every receipt in the updates section. Where the $1,850 goes: • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $670 • Hospital stay (2 nights): $750 • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $130 • Post-operative medication: $95 • Physiotherapy sessions: $115 • Travel and lodging for the family: $90 I hope life is good to you. - Hande
