After an aortic valve defect, Nusrat was cleared for emergency hernia repair, but the bill is more than we can manage.

Nusrat was diagnosed with an aortic valve defect in August. The surgeon at Gazipur Orthopedic Institute recommended emergency hernia repair, and She is scheduled for November. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $670, and after what the government subsidy will pay we're still $500 short. my mother has been in and out of Gazipur Orthopedic Institute since August. The doctors say an aortic valve defect will get worse without emergency hernia repair. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $670 is more than we can find. While we wait, Nusrat struggles with daily life and can't climb stairs. Her family has taken turns caring for her, and I've cut my own work hours to be there. The recovery period is expected to take about 3 weeks. During that time Nusrat won't be able to climb stairs, so the costs keep growing. 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 $500 goes: • Post-operative medication: $20 • Physiotherapy sessions: $55 • Travel and lodging for the family: $60 • Hospital stay (3 nights): $320 • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $45 If you're reading this, thank you.
