Help me pay for emergency hernia repair at Pokhara Orthopedic Institute

In January I was diagnosed with a thyroid nodule that needs removal. My surgeon at Pokhara Orthopedic Institute recommended emergency hernia repair, and I have been placed on the schedule for April. The hospital's financial office gave me a written estimate of $1,000, and after what my insurance will pay, I'm still $500 short. Doctors at Pokhara Orthopedic Institute told me a thyroid nodule that needs removal will get worse without emergency hernia repair. I work as a delivery rider, and I have saved what I can, but the estimate of $1,000 is far beyond what I've. Until the surgery I can't work full days, and my hours as a delivery rider 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 walk without help 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 $500 goes: • Travel and lodging for the family: $25 • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $30 • Physiotherapy sessions: $55 • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $350 • Post-operative medication: $40 Thanks for reading all this. - Ganga
