Rahima's palate reconstruction surgery can't wait - please help us cover the bill
Rahima needs palate reconstruction surgery at Rajshahi Community Hospital and the family is $700 short of the hospital's estimate.

Rahima was diagnosed with severe cataracts in both eyes in August. The surgeon at Rajshahi Community Hospital recommended palate reconstruction surgery, and She is scheduled for November. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $1,000, and after what my insurance will pay we're still $700 short.
my wife has been in and out of Rajshahi Community Hospital since August. The doctors say severe cataracts in both eyes will get worse without palate reconstruction surgery. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $1,000 is more than we can find.
While we wait, Rahima 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 5 weeks. During that time Rahima 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 $700 goes:
• Post-operative medication: $20
• Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $280
• Pre-operative tests and imaging: $70
• Hospital stay (4 nights): $330
I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.
