Lata was diagnosed with gallstones with repeated infections in August. The surgeon at Indore Community Hospital recommended hip replacement surgery, and She is scheduled for November. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $750, and after what my employer's plan will pay we're still $450 short. my daughter has been in and out of Indore Community Hospital since August. The doctors say gallstones with repeated infections will get worse without hip replacement surgery. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $750 is more than we can find. While we wait, Lata struggles with daily life and can't climb stairs. 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 7 weeks. During that time Lata won't be able to climb stairs, 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 $450 goes: • Post-operative medication: $65 • Physiotherapy sessions: $90 • Hospital stay (2 nights): $295 Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot. - Neelam
