Help me pay for laparoscopic cyst removal at Khulna Community Hospital
Shahana needs laparoscopic cyst removal at Khulna Community Hospital and the family is $800 short of the hospital's estimate.

In September I was diagnosed with a thyroid nodule that needs removal. My surgeon at Khulna Community Hospital recommended laparoscopic cyst removal, and I have been placed on the schedule for October. The hospital's financial office gave me a written estimate of $1,000, and after what my employer's plan will pay, I'm still $800 short.
Doctors at Khulna Community Hospital told me a thyroid nodule that needs removal will get worse without laparoscopic cyst removal. I work as a care assistant, and I have saved what I can, but the estimate of $1,000 is far beyond what I've.
Until the surgery I can't work full days, and my hours as a care assistant 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 lift anything heavy 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 $800 goes:
• Travel and lodging for the family: $20
• Pre-operative tests and imaging: $40
• Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $320
• Physiotherapy sessions: $60
• Hospital stay (2 nights): $360
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.

thinking of you, Shahana. This could happen to any of us. Thinking of Khulna
Hope it all works out, Shahana. This could happen to any of us. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Love from Rochester.
Gave what I could, wish it was more. I hope October is when things finally get easier. Thinking of Khulna
This could happen to any of us. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Greetings from Pelotas.
hope it all works out, Shahana. Your post was clear and honest. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day.
