Salim's gallbladder removal can't wait - please help us cover the bill

Salim was diagnosed with a thyroid nodule that needs removal in June. The surgeon at Casablanca University Hospital recommended gallbladder removal, and He is scheduled for September. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $1,800, and after what my employer's plan will pay we're still $1,250 short. my father has been in and out of Casablanca University Hospital since June. The doctors say a thyroid nodule that needs removal will get worse without gallbladder removal. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $1,800 is more than we can find. While we wait, Salim struggles with daily life and can't lift anything heavy. His family has taken turns caring for him, and I've cut my own work hours to be there. Rehabilitation is expected to take about 7 weeks. During that time Salim won't be able to lift anything heavy, 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 $1,250 goes: • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $145 • Hospital stay (4 nights): $570 • Post-operative medication: $45 • Travel and lodging for the family: $35 • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $455 Every share and every dollar helps. - Fatima
