Hip replacement surgery for Jyoti: covering what insurance won't

Jyoti was diagnosed with a large ovarian cyst in March. The surgeon at Lucknow Orthopedic Institute recommended hip replacement surgery, and She is scheduled for July. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $730, and after what our health plan will pay we're still $550 short. my mother has been in and out of Lucknow Orthopedic Institute since March. The doctors say a large ovarian cyst will get worse without hip replacement surgery. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $730 is more than we can find. While we wait, Jyoti 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. The recovery period is expected to take about 4 weeks. During that time Jyoti 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 $550 goes: • Physiotherapy sessions: $120 • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $330 • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $100 With deep gratitude, Pari
