Yuni was diagnosed with a benign brain tumor in October. The surgeon at Saint Francis Hospital recommended a partial thyroidectomy, and She is scheduled for January. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $860, and after what our health plan will pay we're still $600 short. my sister has been in and out of Saint Francis Hospital since October. The doctors say a benign brain tumor will get worse without a partial thyroidectomy. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $860 is more than we can find. While we wait, Yuni struggles with daily life and can't work a full shift. Her family has taken turns caring for her, and I've cut my own work hours to be there. Recovery is expected to take about 3 weeks. During that time Yuni won't be able to work a full shift, so the costs keep growing. I'll pay the hospital and pharmacy directly and post every receipt in the updates section. Where the $600 goes: • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $90 • Hospital stay (5 nights): $350 • Travel and lodging for the family: $60 • Physiotherapy sessions: $55 • Post-operative medication: $45 Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

      Sending love, Budi. I hope things turn around soon. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Greetings from Faisalabad.
