Help me pay for valve repair surgery at Mumbai Regional Medical Center
Mohan needs valve repair surgery at Mumbai Regional Medical Center and the family is $700 short of the hospital's estimate.
🇮🇳 India1,283 views
In May I was diagnosed with a benign brain tumor. My surgeon at Mumbai Regional Medical Center recommended valve repair surgery, and I have been placed on the schedule for September. The hospital's financial office gave me a written estimate of $880, and after what the government subsidy will pay, I'm still $700 short.
Doctors at Mumbai Regional Medical Center told me a benign brain tumor will get worse without valve repair surgery. I work as a retail assistant, and I have saved what I can, but the estimate of $880 is far beyond what I've.
Until the surgery I can't work full days, and my hours as a retail assistant have already been cut. Every week of waiting means more pain and a bigger risk.
The recovery period is expected to take about 4 weeks. I'll not be able to climb stairs 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 $700 goes:
• Post-operative medication: $55
• Travel and lodging for the family: $75
• Pre-operative tests and imaging: $110
• Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $460
I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to.

Wishing you peace. Hope the doctors have good news. I went through something like this 8 years ago and strangers helped me out. Thinking of Mumbai.
