Santhosh's laparoscopic endometriosis surgery can't wait - please help us cover the bill

A scheduled laparoscopic endometriosis surgery in November is out of reach without help covering $1,300 of the cost.

In September I was diagnosed with endometriosis requiring surgery. My surgeon at New Delhi General Hospital recommended laparoscopic endometriosis surgery, and I have been placed on the schedule for November. The hospital's financial office gave me a written estimate of $1,850, and after what my employer's plan will pay, I'm still $1,300 short. Doctors at New Delhi General Hospital told me endometriosis requiring surgery will get worse without laparoscopic endometriosis surgery. I work as a hotel cleaner, and I have saved what I can, but the estimate of $1,850 is far beyond what I've. Until the surgery I can't work full days, and my hours as a hotel cleaner have already been cut. Every week of waiting means more pain and a bigger risk. Recovery is expected to take about 4 weeks. I'll not be able to look after the children alone during that time, so this has become a financial emergency as well as a medical one. 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 $1,300 goes: • Physiotherapy sessions: $110 • Post-operative medication: $40 • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $85 • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $630 • Hospital stay (2 nights): $435 With deep gratitude, Santhosh
