Help me pay for a craniotomy at Comilla University Hospital
Ayesha needs a craniotomy at Comilla University Hospital and the family is $550 short of the hospital's estimate.

In September I was diagnosed with a thyroid nodule that needs removal. My surgeon at Comilla University Hospital recommended a craniotomy, and I have been placed on the schedule for December. The hospital's financial office gave me a written estimate of $690, and after what my insurance will pay, I'm still $550 short.
Doctors at Comilla University Hospital told me a thyroid nodule that needs removal will get worse without a craniotomy. I work as a taxi driver, and I have saved what I can, but the estimate of $690 is far beyond what I've.
Until the surgery I can't work full days, and my hours as a taxi driver have already been cut. Every week of waiting means more pain and a bigger risk.
The recovery period is expected to take about 8 weeks. I'll not be able to climb stairs during that time, so this has become a financial emergency as well as a medical one.
I'll pay the hospital and pharmacy directly and post every receipt in the updates section.
Where the $550 goes:
• Hospital stay (4 nights): $320
• Pre-operative tests and imaging: $70
• Travel and lodging for the family: $40
• Physiotherapy sessions: $60
• Post-operative medication: $60
I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to.
