Help Purvi pay for gallbladder removal at Thane General Hospital
Purvi needs gallbladder removal at Thane General Hospital and the family is $1,100 short of the hospital's estimate.

Purvi was diagnosed with endometriosis requiring surgery in June. The surgeon at Thane General Hospital recommended gallbladder removal, and She is scheduled for August. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $1,550, and after what my employer's plan will pay we're still $1,100 short.
my wife has been in and out of Thane General Hospital since June. The doctors say endometriosis requiring surgery will get worse without gallbladder removal. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $1,550 is more than we can find.
While we wait, Purvi struggles with daily life and can't look after the children alone. Her family has taken turns caring for her, and I've cut my own work hours to be there.
Rehabilitation is expected to take about 10 weeks. During that time Purvi won't be able to look after the children alone, 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 $1,100 goes:
• Pre-operative tests and imaging: $100
• Travel and lodging for the family: $50
• Post-operative medication: $50
• Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $590
• Hospital stay (2 nights): $310
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.
