Talha was diagnosed with a hernia that has become strangulated in August. The surgeon at Lahore Regional Medical Center recommended spinal decompression surgery, and He is scheduled for November. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $1,000, and after what our health plan will pay we're still $800 short. my husband has been in and out of Lahore Regional Medical Center since August. The doctors say a hernia that has become strangulated will get worse without spinal decompression surgery. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $1,000 is more than we can find. While we wait, Talha struggles with daily life and can't lift anything heavy. His family has taken turns caring for him, and I've cut my own work hours to be there. The recovery period is expected to take about 10 weeks. During that time Talha won't be able to lift anything heavy, 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: • Post-operative medication: $30 • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $450 • Travel and lodging for the family: $25 • Hospital stay (5 nights): $260 • Physiotherapy sessions: $35 Thank you so much. - Humaira
