Nur was diagnosed with endometriosis requiring surgery in January. The surgeon at Saint Joseph Hospital recommended knee replacement surgery, and She is scheduled for April. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $1,200, and after what my employer's plan will pay we're still $850 short. my daughter has been in and out of Saint Joseph Hospital since January. The doctors say endometriosis requiring surgery will get worse without knee replacement surgery. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $1,200 is more than we can find. While we wait, Nur struggles with daily life and can't climb stairs. 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 4 weeks. During that time Nur won't be able to climb stairs, 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 $850 goes: • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $320 • Hospital stay (5 nights): $320 • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $75 • Post-operative medication: $30 • Physiotherapy sessions: $70 • Travel and lodging for the family: $35 I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to. - Bagus
