In August I was diagnosed with a hernia that has become strangulated. My surgeon at Sukkur Orthopedic Institute recommended knee replacement surgery, and I have been placed on the schedule for November. The hospital's financial office gave me a written estimate of $1,800, and after what my employer's plan will pay, I'm still $900 short. Doctors at Sukkur Orthopedic Institute told me a hernia that has become strangulated will get worse without knee replacement surgery. I work as a market vendor, and I have saved what I can, but the estimate of $1,800 is far beyond what I've. Until the surgery I can't work full days, and my hours as a market vendor have already been cut. Every week of waiting means more pain and a bigger risk. Rehabilitation is expected to take about 3 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 $900 goes: • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $370 • Hospital stay (2 nights): $280 • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $70 • Post-operative medication: $25 • Physiotherapy sessions: $95 • Travel and lodging for the family: $60 I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support. - Haris

Updates from Haris

  1. We're at 14% thanks to 2 of you. I met with the hospital and confirmed the amounts. More news soon.

  2. Small update. $129 so far, I made the first payment toward travel and lodging for the family.

  3. Good news. Because of your gifts ($79 in total) the first invoice got paid this week. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.

  • So sorry you're going through this, Haris. Shared it with a few friends. My neighbor in La Plata donated after I showed her your page. Blessings.
