Rahul was diagnosed with endometriosis requiring surgery in April. The surgeon at Nashik General Hospital recommended palate reconstruction surgery, and He is scheduled for June. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $400, and after what my employer's plan will pay we're still $200 short. my father has been in and out of Nashik General Hospital since April. The doctors say endometriosis requiring surgery will get worse without palate reconstruction surgery. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $400 is more than we can find. While we wait, Rahul struggles with daily life and can't stand for more than ten minutes. His family has taken turns caring for him, and I've cut my own work hours to be there. Recovery is expected to take about 4 weeks. During that time Rahul won't be able to stand for more than ten minutes, so the costs keep growing. I'll pay the hospital and pharmacy directly and post every receipt in the updates section. Where the $200 goes: • Post-operative medication: $35 • Travel and lodging for the family: $65 • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $100 Thank you so much. - Aarti
