After a large ovarian cyst, Mohammad was cleared for hip replacement surgery, but the bill is more than we can manage.

Mohammad was diagnosed with a large ovarian cyst in August. The surgeon at Gazipur Orthopedic Institute recommended hip replacement surgery, and He is scheduled for October. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $1,300, and after what the public health scheme will pay we're still $1,050 short. my father has been in and out of Gazipur Orthopedic Institute since August. The doctors say a large ovarian cyst will get worse without hip replacement surgery. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $1,300 is more than we can find. While we wait, Mohammad 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 12 weeks. During that time Mohammad 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 $1,050 goes: • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $400 • Hospital stay (2 nights): $420 • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $35 • Post-operative medication: $45 • Physiotherapy sessions: $100 • Travel and lodging for the family: $50 I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support. - Nipa
