Saif was diagnosed with a benign brain tumor in December. The surgeon at Jessore Regional Medical Center recommended spinal decompression surgery, and He is scheduled for February. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $860, and after what the public health scheme will pay we're still $600 short. my husband has been in and out of Jessore Regional Medical Center since December. The doctors say a benign brain tumor will get worse without spinal decompression surgery. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $860 is more than we can find. While we wait, Saif struggles with daily life and can't look after the children alone. His family has taken turns caring for him, and I've cut my own work hours to be there. Recovery is expected to take about 7 weeks. During that time Saif won't be able to look after the children alone, 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 $600 goes: • Physiotherapy sessions: $80 • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $460 • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $35 • Post-operative medication: $25 Thanks for reading all this. - Sultana

  1. Thank you all. We're at 25% now ($149). I'm honestly stunned. the plan for pre-operative tests and imaging is now scheduled.

  2. Update from Jessore: I met with the hospital and confirmed the amounts. We're at 21% of the goal. Thank you for believing in us. - Sultana

  3. Good news. Because of your gifts ($75 in total) the plan for pre-operative tests and imaging is now scheduled. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.
