Septoplasty for Yasir: covering what insurance won't

Yasir was diagnosed with a herniated spinal disc in February. The surgeon at Abbottabad General Hospital recommended septoplasty, and He is scheduled for June. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $330, and after what my insurance will pay we're still $200 short. my brother has been in and out of Abbottabad General Hospital since February. The doctors say a herniated spinal disc will get worse without septoplasty. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $330 is more than we can find. While we wait, Yasir struggles with daily life and can't look after the children alone. His family has taken turns caring for him, and I've cut my own work hours to be there. The recovery period is expected to take about 7 weeks. During that time Yasir won't be able to look after the children alone, 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 $200 goes: • Physiotherapy sessions: $85 • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $55 • Travel and lodging for the family: $60 Thank you for reading my story. - Ali
