Mahmoud was diagnosed with a cleft palate needing repair in December. The surgeon at Jeddah Orthopedic Institute recommended laparoscopic endometriosis surgery, and He is scheduled for March. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $1,150, and after what the government subsidy will pay we're still $700 short. my son has been in and out of Jeddah Orthopedic Institute since December. The doctors say a cleft palate needing repair will get worse without laparoscopic endometriosis surgery. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $1,150 is more than we can find. While we wait, Mahmoud 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 10 weeks. During that time Mahmoud 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 $700 goes: • Travel and lodging for the family: $115 • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $210 • Physiotherapy sessions: $375 If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people. - Rima

        Thank you. If you're in Jeddah I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. I'll keep the page updated.

    • Hope it all works out, Rima. This could happen to any of us. I have a 9 year old who wants to send good wishes too.

        is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Mahmoud.

        • Rima Lina NaguibOwnerAnswerID verified

          Sure. The biggest one is travel and lodging for the family, $115. The rest is in the list at the bottom of the post and I'll upload receipts as I pay each one. Let me know if you want more detail.

      • Praying for you. Hope the doctors have good news. We're a small family in Birmingham but we're thinking of you.

          Thinking of you, Rima. Wishing Mahmoud a smooth procedure and a full recovery. Don't be hard on yourself for asking.

          • Wishing you the best. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected

            • Keep going. Shared it with a few friends. I went through something like this 14 years ago and strangers helped me out.

              • Praying for you, Rima. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did.

                • Best of luck. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Wish I lived closer to Riverside so I could bring a meal. All the best.

                  • Thanks for sharing this, Rima. It takes guts to ask. Well done. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. All the best.

                    • Hope things get better soon, Rima. Shared it with a few friends. Don't give up. God bless.
