A scheduled palate reconstruction surgery in October is out of reach without help covering $150 of the cost.

Sandesh was diagnosed with endometriosis requiring surgery in July. The surgeon at Thane General Hospital recommended palate reconstruction surgery, and He is scheduled for October. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $250, and after what our health plan will pay we're still $150 short.
my father has been in and out of Thane General Hospital since July. 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 $250 is more than we can find.
While we wait, Sandesh 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.
Recovery is expected to take about 6 weeks. During that time Sandesh won't be able to look after the children alone, so the costs keep growing.
I'll pay the hospital and pharmacy directly and post every receipt in the updates section.
Where the $150 goes:
• Post-operative medication: $30
• Physiotherapy sessions: $95
• Travel and lodging for the family: $25
Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.

stay strong. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I hope November is when things finally get easier. Love from Cebu City.
Praying for you. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. Take care.
Praying for you, Supriya. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. God bless.
Thanks for sharing this, Supriya. Wishing Sandesh a smooth procedure and a full recovery. All the best.
Keep going. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. Thinking of Thane
Hope things get better soon, Supriya. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust
Good luck. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. God bless!
Take care, Supriya. I hope things turn around soon.
Rooting for you, Supriya. Wishing Sandesh a smooth procedure and a full recovery. We're a small family in Thessaloniki but we're thinking of you.
Thinking of you. Get well soon. Thinking of Thane.
