Help Mitu pay for laparoscopic cyst removal at Saint Joseph Hospital
Mitu needs laparoscopic cyst removal at Saint Joseph Hospital and the family is $650 short of the hospital's estimate.
🇮🇳 Pune, Maharashtra, India675 views
Mitu was diagnosed with endometriosis requiring surgery in December. The surgeon at Saint Joseph Hospital recommended laparoscopic cyst removal, and She is scheduled for March. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $1,300, and after what the government subsidy will pay we're still $650 short.
my sister has been in and out of Saint Joseph Hospital since December. The doctors say endometriosis requiring surgery will get worse without laparoscopic cyst removal. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $1,300 is more than we can find.
While we wait, Mitu 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.
The recovery period is expected to take about 10 weeks. During that time Mitu 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 $650 goes:
• Physiotherapy sessions: $130
• Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $450
• Pre-operative tests and imaging: $70
If you're reading this, thank you.
