Mardan
In November I was diagnosed with a benign brain tumor. My surgeon at Mardan General Hospital recommended cataract surgery, and I have been placed on the schedule for February. The hospital's financial office gave me a written estimate of $940, and after what my insurance will pay, I'm still $750 short. Doctors at Mardan General Hospital told me a benign brain tumor will get worse without cataract surgery. I work as a delivery rider, and I have saved what I can, but the estimate of $940 is far beyond what I've. Until the surgery I can't work full days, and my hours as a delivery rider have already been cut. Every week of waiting means more pain and a bigger risk. Recovery is expected to take about 8 weeks. I'll not be able to work a full shift during that time, so this has become a financial emergency as well as a medical one. The money goes straight to the treatment bills, and I'll share the invoices as they're paid so you can see exactly what your gift did. Where the $750 goes: • Post-operative medication: $50 • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $370 • Travel and lodging for the family: $50 • Hospital stay (2 nights): $200 • Physiotherapy sessions: $80 Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly. - Haris

  • I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. After 24 years in social work I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Thinking of Mardan

    • Good luck, Haris. Hope this works out for you. Take care.

      • keep going. Hope you get there. I went through something like this 3 years ago and strangers helped me out!

        • Thinking of you. I hope things turn around soon. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. All the best.

          • Hope things get better soon. Gave what I could, wish it was more. My neighbor in Yonkers donated after I showed her your page. Take care.
