Help Vipul pay for a craniotomy at Muzaffarpur Community Hospital

Vipul was diagnosed with an aortic valve defect in May. The surgeon at Muzaffarpur Community Hospital recommended a craniotomy, and He is scheduled for August. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $1,750, and after what my insurance will pay we're still $1,050 short. my father has been in and out of Muzaffarpur Community Hospital since May. The doctors say an aortic valve defect will get worse without a craniotomy. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $1,750 is more than we can find. While we wait, Vipul struggles with daily life and can't lift anything heavy. His family has taken turns caring for him, and I've cut my own work hours to be there. The recovery period is expected to take about 10 weeks. During that time Vipul won't be able to lift anything heavy, so the costs keep growing. I'll pay the hospital and pharmacy directly and post every receipt in the updates section. Where the $1,050 goes: • Hospital stay (5 nights): $490 • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $380 • Post-operative medication: $40 • Physiotherapy sessions: $80 • Travel and lodging for the family: $60 If you're reading this, thank you. - Kshitija
