Sylhet
In May I was diagnosed with a deviated septum causing chronic infections. My surgeon at Sylhet Orthopedic Institute recommended ACL reconstruction, and I have been placed on the schedule for September. The hospital's financial office gave me a written estimate of $1,000, and after what my employer's plan will pay, I'm still $600 short. Doctors at Sylhet Orthopedic Institute told me a deviated septum causing chronic infections will get worse without ACL reconstruction. I work as a retail assistant, 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 retail assistant have already been cut. Every week of waiting means more pain and a bigger risk. Rehabilitation is expected to take about 6 weeks. I'll not be able to drive 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 $600 goes: • Hospital stay (5 nights): $165 • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $330 • Physiotherapy sessions: $50 • Post-operative medication: $30 • Travel and lodging for the family: $25 You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.
