Charlotte was diagnosed with a hip fracture that never healed properly in April. The surgeon at Rabat University Hospital recommended spinal decompression surgery, and She is scheduled for August. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $930, and after what my employer's plan will pay we're still $700 short. my mother has been in and out of Rabat University Hospital since April. The doctors say a hip fracture that never healed properly will get worse without spinal decompression surgery. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $930 is more than we can find. While we wait, Charlotte struggles with daily life and can't climb stairs. Her family has taken turns caring for her, and I've cut my own work hours to be there. Recovery is expected to take about 8 weeks. During that time Charlotte won't be able to climb stairs, 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 $700 goes: • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $450 • Physiotherapy sessions: $85 • Post-operative medication: $40 • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $65 • Travel and lodging for the family: $60 Thank you so much. - Fabrice
