Aarti was diagnosed with a hernia that has become strangulated in August. The surgeon at Nagpur Regional Medical Center recommended laparoscopic endometriosis surgery, and She is scheduled for November. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $1,650, and after what the government subsidy will pay we're still $1,150 short. my daughter has been in and out of Nagpur Regional Medical Center since August. The doctors say a hernia that has become strangulated will get worse without laparoscopic endometriosis surgery. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $1,650 is more than we can find. While we wait, Aarti 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. The recovery period is expected to take about 10 weeks. During that time Aarti won't be able to climb stairs, so the costs keep growing. I'll pay the hospital and pharmacy directly and post every receipt in the updates section. Where the $1,150 goes: • Hospital stay (5 nights): $440 • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $580 • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $70 • Travel and lodging for the family: $60 Every share and every dollar helps.
