Help Bappy pay for emergency hernia repair at Nashik Community Hospital

Bappy was diagnosed with osteoarthritis in the right knee in July. The surgeon at Nashik Community Hospital recommended emergency hernia repair, and He is scheduled for September. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $1,900, and after what our health plan will pay we're still $1,150 short. my son has been in and out of Nashik Community Hospital since July. The doctors say osteoarthritis in the right knee will get worse without emergency hernia repair. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $1,900 is more than we can find. While we wait, Bappy struggles with daily life and can't look after the children alone. 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 7 weeks. During that time Bappy won't be able to look after the children alone, 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: • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $480 • Hospital stay (2 nights): $360 • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $80 • Post-operative medication: $60 • Physiotherapy sessions: $80 • Travel and lodging for the family: $90 Thank you for reading my story.
