Lahore
Adnan was diagnosed with an aortic valve defect in October. The surgeon at Lahore University Hospital recommended spinal decompression surgery, and He is scheduled for January. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $670, and after what my insurance will pay we're still $400 short. my son has been in and out of Lahore University Hospital since October. The doctors say an aortic valve defect will get worse without spinal decompression surgery. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $670 is more than we can find. While we wait, Adnan struggles with daily life and can't walk without help. 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 Adnan won't be able to walk without help, 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 $400 goes: โ€ข Travel and lodging for the family: $25 โ€ข Pre-operative tests and imaging: $80 โ€ข Physiotherapy sessions: $40 โ€ข Post-operative medication: $25 โ€ข Hospital stay (4 nights): $230 Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself. - Tariq
