Anushka was diagnosed with an aortic valve defect in November. The surgeon at New Delhi Regional Medical Center recommended emergency hernia repair, and She is scheduled for March. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $940, and after what my employer's plan will pay we're still $750 short. my daughter has been in and out of New Delhi Regional Medical Center since November. The doctors say an aortic valve defect will get worse without emergency hernia repair. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $940 is more than we can find. While we wait, Anushka struggles with daily life and can't drive. Her family has taken turns caring for her, and I've cut my own work hours to be there. Rehabilitation is expected to take about 7 weeks. During that time Anushka won't be able to drive, so the costs keep growing. I'll pay the hospital and pharmacy directly and post every receipt in the updates section. Where the $750 goes: • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $270 • Hospital stay (3 nights): $210 • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $90 • Post-operative medication: $65 • Physiotherapy sessions: $70 • Travel and lodging for the family: $45 I hope life is good to you.
