Hip replacement surgery for Nasrin: covering what insurance won't
After a hip fracture that never healed properly, Nasrin was cleared for hip replacement surgery, but the bill is more than we can manage.

Nasrin was diagnosed with a hip fracture that never healed properly in April. The surgeon at Narayanganj Regional Medical Center recommended hip replacement surgery, and She is scheduled for June. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $430, and after what our health plan will pay we're still $300 short.
my mother has been in and out of Narayanganj Regional Medical Center since April. The doctors say a hip fracture that never healed properly will get worse without hip replacement surgery. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $430 is more than we can find.
While we wait, Nasrin struggles with daily life and can't walk without help. 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 8 weeks. During that time Nasrin won't be able to walk without help, 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 $300 goes:
• Physiotherapy sessions: $75
• Pre-operative tests and imaging: $55
• Hospital stay (3 nights): $170
Thanks for reading all this.

Keep going, Tithi. Hope this works out for you. I went through something like this 7 years ago and strangers helped me out. God bless.
