Surgery fund for Jannat: cataract surgery in Savar

Jannat was diagnosed with a hernia that has become strangulated in August. The surgeon at Savar General Hospital recommended cataract surgery, and She is scheduled for November. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $500, and after what our health plan will pay we're still $350 short. my sister has been in and out of Savar General Hospital since August. The doctors say a hernia that has become strangulated will get worse without cataract surgery. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $500 is more than we can find. While we wait, Jannat struggles with daily life and can't stand for more than ten minutes. Her family has taken turns caring for her, and I've cut my own work hours to be there. Rehabilitation is expected to take about 5 weeks. During that time Jannat won't be able to stand for more than ten minutes, 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 $350 goes: • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $250 • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $65 • Post-operative medication: $35 Thanks for reading all this. - Babu
