Sayali was diagnosed with a torn ligament that needs reconstruction in May. The surgeon at Chennai Community Hospital recommended laparoscopic endometriosis surgery, and She is scheduled for August. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $1,650, and after what the government subsidy will pay we're still $1,000 short. my mother has been in and out of Chennai Community Hospital since May. The doctors say a torn ligament that needs reconstruction will get worse without laparoscopic endometriosis surgery. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $1,650 is more than we can find. While we wait, Sayali struggles with daily life and can't climb stairs. Her family has taken turns caring for her, and I've cut my own work hours to be there. Recovery is expected to take about 6 weeks. During that time Sayali won't be able to climb stairs, so the costs keep growing. I'll pay the hospital and pharmacy directly and post every receipt in the updates section. Where the $1,000 goes: • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $470 • Hospital stay (4 nights): $260 • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $85 • Post-operative medication: $70 • Physiotherapy sessions: $55 • Travel and lodging for the family: $60 If you're reading this, thank you. - Prachi
