Rafiq's septoplasty can't wait - please help us cover the bill

Rafiq was diagnosed with an aortic valve defect in September. The surgeon at Pune General Hospital recommended septoplasty, and He is scheduled for December. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $250, and after what my insurance will pay we're still $200 short. my son has been in and out of Pune General Hospital since September. The doctors say an aortic valve defect will get worse without septoplasty. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $250 is more than we can find. While we wait, Rafiq struggles with daily life and can't look after the children alone. 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 5 weeks. During that time Rafiq 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 $200 goes: • Post-operative medication: $40 • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $75 • Physiotherapy sessions: $85 Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.
