Nusrat was diagnosed with a thyroid nodule that needs removal in September. The surgeon at Dhaka Orthopedic Institute recommended hip replacement surgery, and She is scheduled for October. 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 $850 short. my wife has been in and out of Dhaka Orthopedic Institute since September. The doctors say a thyroid nodule that needs removal will get worse without hip replacement surgery. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $1,400 is more than we can find. While we wait, Nusrat 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. Recovery is expected to take about 12 weeks. During that time Nusrat 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 $850 goes: • Post-operative medication: $15 • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $60 • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $340 • Hospital stay (4 nights): $350 • Physiotherapy sessions: $85 With deep gratitude, Emon
