Help Suresh pay for spinal decompression surgery at Mumbai Community Hospital
After endometriosis requiring surgery, Suresh was cleared for spinal decompression surgery, but the bill is more than we can manage.
🇮🇳 Mumbai, Maharashtra, India837 views
Suresh was diagnosed with endometriosis requiring surgery in July. The surgeon at Mumbai Community Hospital recommended spinal decompression surgery, and He is scheduled for November. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $1,450, and after what our health plan will pay we're still $1,150 short.
my father has been in and out of Mumbai Community Hospital since July. The doctors say endometriosis requiring surgery will get worse without spinal decompression surgery. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $1,450 is more than we can find.
While we wait, Suresh struggles with daily life and can't drive. 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 12 weeks. During that time Suresh won't be able to drive, 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 $1,150 goes:
• Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $490
• Hospital stay (5 nights): $430
• Pre-operative tests and imaging: $70
• Post-operative medication: $20
• Physiotherapy sessions: $90
• Travel and lodging for the family: $50
Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.
