Nadia's hip replacement surgery can't wait - please help us cover the bill
A scheduled hip replacement surgery in October is out of reach without help covering $950 of the cost.

Nadia was diagnosed with a large ovarian cyst in July. The surgeon at Mansoura General Hospital recommended hip replacement surgery, and She is scheduled for October. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $1,600, and after what the public health scheme will pay we're still $950 short.
my mother has been in and out of Mansoura General Hospital since July. The doctors say a large ovarian cyst will get worse without hip replacement surgery. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $1,600 is more than we can find.
While we wait, Nadia struggles with daily life and can't climb stairs. Her family has taken turns caring for her, and I've cut my own work hours to be there.
The recovery period is expected to take about 7 weeks. During that time Nadia won't be able to climb stairs, so the costs keep growing.
I'll pay the hospital and pharmacy directly and post every receipt in the updates section.
Where the $950 goes:
• Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $490
• Hospital stay (2 nights): $270
• Pre-operative tests and imaging: $35
• Post-operative medication: $30
• Physiotherapy sessions: $55
• Travel and lodging for the family: $70
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.
