Rukhsar's a partial thyroidectomy can't wait - please help us cover the bill

In February I was diagnosed with gallstones with repeated infections. My surgeon at Faisalabad General Hospital recommended a partial thyroidectomy, and I have been placed on the schedule for April. The hospital's financial office gave me a written estimate of $1,350, and after what my employer's plan will pay, I'm still $800 short. Doctors at Faisalabad General Hospital told me gallstones with repeated infections will get worse without a partial thyroidectomy. I work as a restaurant cook, and I have saved what I can, but the estimate of $1,350 is far beyond what I've. Until the surgery I can't work full days, and my hours as a restaurant cook have already been cut. Every week of waiting means more pain and a bigger risk. The recovery period is expected to take about 7 weeks. I'll not be able to drive during that time, so this has become a financial emergency as well as a medical one. I'll pay the hospital and pharmacy directly and post every receipt in the updates section. Where the $800 goes: • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $360 • Hospital stay (3 nights): $220 • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $60 • Post-operative medication: $25 • Physiotherapy sessions: $70 • Travel and lodging for the family: $65 Thanks for reading all this. - Rukhsar
