Help Karan pay for cataract surgery at Saint Luke Hospital

Karan was diagnosed with a herniated spinal disc in August. The surgeon at Saint Luke Hospital recommended cataract surgery, and He is scheduled for November. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $1,300, and after what the public health scheme will pay we're still $650 short. my husband has been in and out of Saint Luke Hospital since August. 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 $1,300 is more than we can find. While we wait, Karan struggles with daily life and can't drive. 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 7 weeks. During that time Karan won't be able to drive, so the costs keep growing. I'll pay the hospital and pharmacy directly and post every receipt in the updates section. Where the $650 goes: • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $450 • Physiotherapy sessions: $50 • Post-operative medication: $60 • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $90 I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.
