Sabina's septoplasty can't wait - please help us cover the bill

In April I was diagnosed with an aortic valve defect. My surgeon at Cox's Bazar Orthopedic Institute recommended septoplasty, and I have been placed on the schedule for July. The hospital's financial office gave me a written estimate of $870, and after what my insurance will pay, I'm still $650 short. Doctors at Cox's Bazar Orthopedic Institute told me an aortic valve defect will get worse without septoplasty. I work as a taxi driver, and I have saved what I can, but the estimate of $870 is far beyond what I've. Until the surgery I can't work full days, and my hours as a taxi driver have already been cut. Every week of waiting means more pain and a bigger risk. Rehabilitation is expected to take about 10 weeks. I'll not be able to climb stairs 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 $650 goes: • Travel and lodging for the family: $30 • Post-operative medication: $20 • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $400 • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $95 • Physiotherapy sessions: $105 Glad we found this place.
