Surgery fund for Fatima: palate reconstruction surgery in Rawalpindi
Fatima needs palate reconstruction surgery at Rawalpindi Orthopedic Institute and the family is $800 short of the hospital's estimate.
🇵🇰 Rawalpindi, Punjab, Pakistan522 views
Fatima was diagnosed with endometriosis requiring surgery in June. The surgeon at Rawalpindi Orthopedic Institute recommended palate reconstruction surgery, and She is scheduled for August. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $1,600, and after what the public health scheme will pay we're still $800 short.
my daughter has been in and out of Rawalpindi Orthopedic Institute since June. The doctors say endometriosis requiring surgery will get worse without palate reconstruction surgery. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $1,600 is more than we can find.
While we wait, Fatima struggles with daily life and can't drive. Her family has taken turns caring for her, and I've cut my own work hours to be there.
The recovery period is expected to take about 10 weeks. During that time Fatima won't be able to drive, 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 $800 goes:
• Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $290
• Hospital stay (5 nights): $260
• Pre-operative tests and imaging: $65
• Post-operative medication: $50
• Physiotherapy sessions: $75
• Travel and lodging for the family: $60
Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.

Thinking of you and your family, Zain. Wishing Fatima a smooth procedure and a full recovery
Sending good thoughts. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. After 22 years in nursing I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Thinking of Rawalpindi.
