Help Dinesh pay for cataract surgery at Mumbai Regional Medical Center

Dinesh was diagnosed with a thyroid nodule that needs removal in August. The surgeon at Mumbai Regional Medical Center recommended cataract surgery, and He is scheduled for November. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $1,550, and after what the public health scheme will pay we're still $1,150 short. my husband has been in and out of Mumbai Regional Medical Center since August. The doctors say a thyroid nodule that needs removal will get worse without cataract surgery. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $1,550 is more than we can find. While we wait, Dinesh struggles with daily life and can't drive. His family has taken turns caring for him, and I've cut my own work hours to be there. Rehabilitation is expected to take about 5 weeks. During that time Dinesh won't be able to drive, 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: $600 • Physiotherapy sessions: $130 • Hospital stay (3 nights): $310 • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $90 • Travel and lodging for the family: $20 I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to.
