Tanvi was diagnosed with a hip fracture that never healed properly in June. The surgeon at Mumbai Community Hospital recommended emergency hernia repair, and She is scheduled for August. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $690, and after what the public health scheme will pay we're still $550 short. my wife has been in and out of Mumbai Community Hospital since June. The doctors say a hip fracture that never healed properly will get worse without emergency hernia repair. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $690 is more than we can find. While we wait, Tanvi struggles with daily life and can't work a full shift. 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 5 weeks. During that time Tanvi won't be able to work a full shift, so the costs keep growing. I'll pay the hospital and pharmacy directly and post every receipt in the updates section. Where the $550 goes: • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $85 • Travel and lodging for the family: $45 • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $420 Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.
