Runa was diagnosed with a large ovarian cyst in January. The surgeon at Saint Elizabeth Hospital recommended valve repair surgery, and She is scheduled for April. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $790, and after what the government subsidy will pay we're still $550 short. my daughter has been in and out of Saint Elizabeth Hospital since January. The doctors say a large ovarian cyst will get worse without valve repair surgery. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $790 is more than we can find. While we wait, Runa struggles with daily life and can't walk without help. 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 Runa won't be able to walk without help, 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 $550 goes: • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $80 • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $410 • Physiotherapy sessions: $50 • Travel and lodging for the family: $10 Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself. - Hridoy
