Help Mukesh pay for a partial thyroidectomy at Varanasi Orthopedic Institute

Mukesh was diagnosed with severe cataracts in both eyes in August. The surgeon at Varanasi Orthopedic Institute recommended a partial thyroidectomy, and He is scheduled for October. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $2,500, and after what the government subsidy will pay we're still $1,250 short. my son has been in and out of Varanasi Orthopedic Institute since August. The doctors say severe cataracts in both eyes will get worse without a partial thyroidectomy. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $2,500 is more than we can find. While we wait, Mukesh struggles with daily life and can't walk without help. 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 3 weeks. During that time Mukesh won't be able to walk without help, so the costs keep growing. I'll pay the hospital and pharmacy directly and post every receipt in the updates section. Where the $1,250 goes: • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $520 • Hospital stay (2 nights): $450 • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $105 • Post-operative medication: $65 • Physiotherapy sessions: $65 • Travel and lodging for the family: $45 You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it. - Neha
