Jigna's knee replacement surgery can't wait - please help us cover the bill
A scheduled knee replacement surgery in June is out of reach without help covering $1,200 of the cost.

Jigna was diagnosed with gallstones with repeated infections in March. The surgeon at Aurangabad Regional Medical Center recommended knee replacement surgery, and She is scheduled for June. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $1,600, and after what my insurance will pay we're still $1,200 short.
my daughter has been in and out of Aurangabad Regional Medical Center since March. The doctors say gallstones with repeated infections will get worse without knee replacement surgery. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $1,600 is more than we can find.
While we wait, Jigna struggles with daily life and can't walk without help. 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 7 weeks. During that time Jigna won't be able to walk without help, 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 $1,200 goes:
• Hospital stay (4 nights): $510
• Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $570
• Post-operative medication: $35
• Physiotherapy sessions: $85
If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.

Rooting for you. Hope this works out for you. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. All the best.
Wishing you peace, Zalak. Wishing Jigna a smooth procedure and a full recovery. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Thinking of Aurangabad!
Stay strong, Zalak. I hope things turn around soon. I'm in teaching myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Greetings from Vadodara
