Babu's laparoscopic cyst removal can't wait - please help us cover the bill

In September I was diagnosed with a cleft palate needing repair. My surgeon at Surat Regional Medical Center recommended laparoscopic cyst removal, and I have been placed on the schedule for November. The hospital's financial office gave me a written estimate of $560, and after what the public health scheme will pay, I'm still $450 short. Doctors at Surat Regional Medical Center told me a cleft palate needing repair will get worse without laparoscopic cyst removal. I work as a market vendor, and I have saved what I can, but the estimate of $560 is far beyond what I've. Until the surgery I can't work full days, and my hours as a market vendor have already been cut. Every week of waiting means more pain and a bigger risk. Recovery is expected to take about 3 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. I'll pay the hospital and pharmacy directly and post every receipt in the updates section. Where the $450 goes: • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $90 • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $300 • Travel and lodging for the family: $60 I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to. - Babu
