Fatima was diagnosed with a benign brain tumor in August. The surgeon at Lahore University Hospital recommended hip replacement surgery, and She is scheduled for October. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $710, and after what the government subsidy will pay we're still $500 short. my sister has been in and out of Lahore University Hospital since August. The doctors say a benign brain tumor will get worse without hip replacement surgery. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $710 is more than we can find. While we wait, Fatima struggles with daily life and can't walk without help. 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 Fatima 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 $500 goes: • Post-operative medication: $30 • Travel and lodging for the family: $40 • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $340 • Physiotherapy sessions: $90 Thank you for reading my story.

Updates from Haris

  1. Update from Lahore: I met with the hospital and confirmed the amounts. We're at 19% of the goal. Thank you for believing in us.

  2. Good news. Because of your gifts ($81 in total) I made the first payment toward travel and lodging for the family. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.

  • Hope things get better soon. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Blessings
