Aswan
Faisal was diagnosed with a large ovarian cyst in August. The surgeon at Aswan University Hospital recommended ACL reconstruction, and He is scheduled for November. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $1,250, and after what the government subsidy will pay we're still $1,000 short. my husband has been in and out of Aswan University Hospital since August. The doctors say a large ovarian cyst will get worse without ACL reconstruction. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $1,250 is more than we can find. While we wait, Faisal 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. Recovery is expected to take about 7 weeks. During that time Faisal 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 $1,000 goes: • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $350 • Hospital stay (3 nights): $400 • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $50 • Post-operative medication: $40 • Physiotherapy sessions: $115 • Travel and lodging for the family: $45 You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.
