Mangaluru
Geeta was diagnosed with a cleft palate needing repair in August. The surgeon at Mangaluru Orthopedic Institute recommended septoplasty, and She is scheduled for November. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $1,650, and after what our health plan will pay we're still $1,300 short. my wife has been in and out of Mangaluru Orthopedic Institute since August. The doctors say a cleft palate needing repair will get worse without septoplasty. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $1,650 is more than we can find. While we wait, Geeta struggles with daily life and can't walk without help. Her family has taken turns caring for her, and I've cut my own work hours to be there. The recovery period is expected to take about 7 weeks. During that time Geeta won't be able to walk without help, so the costs keep growing. I'll pay the hospital and pharmacy directly and post every receipt in the updates section. Where the $1,300 goes: • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $100 • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $520 • Physiotherapy sessions: $115 • Hospital stay (4 nights): $510 • Travel and lodging for the family: $55 I hope life is good to you.
