In August I was diagnosed with a torn ligament that needs reconstruction. My surgeon at Mardan Community Hospital recommended laparoscopic cyst removal, and I have been placed on the schedule for October. The hospital's financial office gave me a written estimate of $1,150, and after what my employer's plan will pay, I'm still $900 short. Doctors at Mardan Community Hospital told me a torn ligament that needs reconstruction will get worse without laparoscopic cyst removal. I work as a farm laborer, and I have saved what I can, but the estimate of $1,150 is far beyond what I've. Until the surgery I can't work full days, and my hours as a farm laborer have already been cut. Every week of waiting means more pain and a bigger risk. Rehabilitation is expected to take about 12 weeks. I'll not be able to look after the children alone during that time, so this has become a financial emergency as well as a medical one. 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 $900 goes: • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $380 • Hospital stay (5 nights): $300 • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $60 • Post-operative medication: $35 • Physiotherapy sessions: $95 • Travel and lodging for the family: $30 Thanks for being kind about this. - Rabia
