Surgery fund for Hossain: palate reconstruction surgery in Khulna

Hossain was diagnosed with osteoarthritis in the right knee in July. The surgeon at Khulna Community Hospital recommended palate reconstruction surgery, and He is scheduled for November. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $920, and after what the public health scheme will pay we're still $550 short. my brother has been in and out of Khulna Community Hospital since July. The doctors say osteoarthritis in the right knee will get worse without palate reconstruction surgery. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $920 is more than we can find. While we wait, Hossain 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. Rehabilitation is expected to take about 3 weeks. During that time Hossain 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 $550 goes: • Travel and lodging for the family: $25 • Physiotherapy sessions: $115 • Hospital stay (4 nights): $320 • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $90 I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.
