Rajesh was diagnosed with a large ovarian cyst in August. The surgeon at Riverside Orthopedic Institute recommended laparoscopic cyst removal, and He is scheduled for November. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $11,750, and after what my insurance will pay we're still $7,000 short. my brother has been in and out of Riverside Orthopedic Institute since August. The doctors say a large ovarian cyst will get worse without laparoscopic cyst removal. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $11,750 is more than we can find. While we wait, Rajesh struggles with daily life and can't work a full shift. 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 3 weeks. During that time Rajesh won't be able to work a full shift, 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 $7,000 goes: โ€ข Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $3,000 โ€ข Hospital stay (2 nights): $2,200 โ€ข Pre-operative tests and imaging: $640 โ€ข Post-operative medication: $160 โ€ข Physiotherapy sessions: $800 โ€ข Travel and lodging for the family: $200 Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

      Hope the doctors have good news. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Greetings from Grand Rapids.

      • how is Rajesh doing now?

        • Wishing you the best, Umesh. This could happen to any of us.

          • is there anything that isn't money that would help Rajesh?

            • Umesh NegiOwnerAnswer

              Thank you. If you're in Riverside I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. Happy to explain more.

              What's already covered and what's the $7,000 for?

              • Umesh NegiOwnerAnswer

                Sure. The biggest one is surgeon and anesthesia fees, $3,000. The rest is in the list at the bottom of the post and I'll upload receipts as I pay each one. Appreciate you taking the time.

            • Thanks for sharing this, Umesh. Hope this works out for you. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry

              • Thinking of you and your family. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Take care

                • stay strong. Gave what I could, wish it was more.

                    shared it with a few friends. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Greetings from Manchester!

                      I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. I'll check back for the next update. God bless

                      • Sending good thoughts. Your post was clear and honest. Wish I lived closer to Kharkiv so I could bring a meal. Blessings

                        • hope this works out for you. I went through something like this 11 years ago and strangers helped me out!

                          • sending strength. Shared it with a few friends. Sent it to 40 people at work. Blessings.

                            • Thinking of you, Umesh. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. It's not much but it's yours. All the best
