In March I was diagnosed with a benign brain tumor. My surgeon at Narayanganj Orthopedic Institute recommended a partial thyroidectomy, and I have been placed on the schedule for June. The hospital's financial office gave me a written estimate of $1,600, and after what the government subsidy will pay, I'm still $800 short. Doctors at Narayanganj Orthopedic Institute told me a benign brain tumor will get worse without a partial thyroidectomy. I work as a call-centre agent, and I have saved what I can, but the estimate of $1,600 is far beyond what I've. Until the surgery I can't work full days, and my hours as a call-centre agent have already been cut. Every week of waiting means more pain and a bigger risk. Recovery is expected to take about 6 weeks. I'll not be able to walk without help 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 $800 goes: • Hospital stay (4 nights): $175 • Post-operative medication: $50 • Travel and lodging for the family: $45 • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $460 • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $70 Thanks for reading all this.
