Help me pay for laparoscopic cyst removal at Pune Community Hospital

In July I was diagnosed with an aortic valve defect. My surgeon at Pune Community Hospital recommended laparoscopic cyst removal, and I have been placed on the schedule for September. The hospital's financial office gave me a written estimate of $400, and after what my employer's plan will pay, I'm still $200 short. Doctors at Pune Community Hospital told me an aortic valve defect will get worse without laparoscopic cyst removal. I work as a hotel cleaner, and I have saved what I can, but the estimate of $400 is far beyond what I've. Until the surgery I can't work full days, and my hours as a hotel cleaner have already been cut. Every week of waiting means more pain and a bigger risk. The recovery period is expected to take about 12 weeks. I'll not be able to stand for more than ten minutes during that time, so this has become a financial emergency as well as a medical one. 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 $200 goes: • Travel and lodging for the family: $30 • Physiotherapy sessions: $60 • Post-operative medication: $65 • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $45 If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.
