Dammam
Hussein was diagnosed with a hip fracture that never healed properly in August. The surgeon at Dammam General Hospital recommended laparoscopic endometriosis surgery, and He is scheduled for November. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $3,300, and after what my employer's plan will pay we're still $2,300 short. my father has been in and out of Dammam General Hospital since August. The doctors say a hip fracture that never healed properly will get worse without laparoscopic endometriosis surgery. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $3,300 is more than we can find. While we wait, Hussein struggles with daily life and can't climb stairs. 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 8 weeks. During that time Hussein 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 $2,300 goes: • Travel and lodging for the family: $230 • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $1,850 • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $220 Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure. - Anwar
