Iman was diagnosed with gallstones with repeated infections in April. The surgeon at Giza General Hospital recommended emergency hernia repair, and She is scheduled for July. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $1,400, and after what my employer's plan will pay we're still $1,050 short. my mother has been in and out of Giza General Hospital since April. The doctors say gallstones with repeated infections will get worse without emergency hernia repair. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $1,400 is more than we can find. While we wait, Iman struggles with daily life and can't stand for more than ten minutes. Her family has taken turns caring for her, and I've cut my own work hours to be there. Rehabilitation is expected to take about 8 weeks. During that time Iman won't be able to stand for more than ten minutes, 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 $1,050 goes: • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $420 • Hospital stay (5 nights): $380 • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $50 • Post-operative medication: $60 • Physiotherapy sessions: $55 • Travel and lodging for the family: $85 Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.
