Laparoscopic endometriosis surgery for Dipu: covering what insurance won't
A scheduled laparoscopic endometriosis surgery in September is out of reach without help covering $550 of the cost.

In June I was diagnosed with a torn ligament that needs reconstruction. My surgeon at Bogra Regional Medical Center recommended laparoscopic endometriosis surgery, and I have been placed on the schedule for September. The hospital's financial office gave me a written estimate of $920, and after what the government subsidy will pay, I'm still $550 short.
Doctors at Bogra Regional Medical Center told me a torn ligament that needs reconstruction will get worse without laparoscopic endometriosis surgery. I work as a school bus driver, and I have saved what I can, but the estimate of $920 is far beyond what I've.
Until the surgery I can't work full days, and my hours as a school bus driver have already been cut. Every week of waiting means more pain and a bigger risk.
Recovery is expected to take about 5 weeks. I'll not be able to work a full shift during that time, so this has become a financial emergency as well as a medical one.
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 $550 goes:
• Pre-operative tests and imaging: $50
• Travel and lodging for the family: $20
• Physiotherapy sessions: $60
• Post-operative medication: $35
• Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $385
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

Gave what I could, wish it was more. Thinking of Bogra!
Good luck, Dipu. Hope this works out for you. I hope September is when things finally get easier
