Help Chhaya pay for hip replacement surgery at Bowling Green University Hospital
A scheduled hip replacement surgery in September is out of reach without help covering $8,550 of the cost.

Chhaya was diagnosed with a thyroid nodule that needs removal in June. The surgeon at Bowling Green University Hospital recommended hip replacement surgery, and She is scheduled for September. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $14,250, and after what the government subsidy will pay we're still $8,550 short.
my daughter has been in and out of Bowling Green University Hospital since June. The doctors say a thyroid nodule that needs removal will get worse without hip replacement surgery. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $14,250 is more than we can find.
While we wait, Chhaya struggles with daily life and can't stand for more than ten minutes. Her family has taken turns caring for her, and I've cut my own work hours to be there.
Rehabilitation is expected to take about 3 weeks. During that time Chhaya won't be able to stand for more than ten minutes, 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 $8,550 goes:
• Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $3,300
• Hospital stay (2 nights): $3,550
• Pre-operative tests and imaging: $640
• Post-operative medication: $260
• Physiotherapy sessions: $470
• Travel and lodging for the family: $330
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.
