In August I was diagnosed with a hip fracture that never healed properly. My surgeon at Lahore Community Hospital recommended valve repair surgery, and I have been placed on the schedule for October. The hospital's financial office gave me a written estimate of $1,000, and after what my insurance will pay, I'm still $700 short. Doctors at Lahore Community Hospital told me a hip fracture that never healed properly will get worse without valve repair surgery. I work as a hotel cleaner, and I have saved what I can, but the estimate of $1,000 is far beyond what I've. Until the surgery I can't work full days, and my hours as a hotel cleaner have already been cut. Every week of waiting means more pain and a bigger risk. Rehabilitation is expected to take about 12 weeks. I'll not be able to work a full shift during that time, so this has become a financial emergency as well as a medical one. 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 $700 goes: • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $220 • Hospital stay (5 nights): $210 • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $40 • Post-operative medication: $60 • Physiotherapy sessions: $85 • Travel and lodging for the family: $85 I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to.

  • Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. I went through something like this 5 years ago and strangers helped me out. All the best.

    • Keep going, Shahid. Shared it with a few friends. Take care.
