Surgery fund for Kalyani: spinal decompression surgery in Aurangabad

In August I was diagnosed with a hip fracture that never healed properly. My surgeon at Aurangabad Orthopedic Institute recommended spinal decompression surgery, and I have been placed on the schedule for November. The hospital's financial office gave me a written estimate of $1,500, and after what our health plan will pay, I'm still $900 short. Doctors at Aurangabad Orthopedic Institute told me a hip fracture that never healed properly will get worse without spinal decompression surgery. I work as a warehouse packer, and I have saved what I can, but the estimate of $1,500 is far beyond what I've. Until the surgery I can't work full days, and my hours as a warehouse packer have already been cut. Every week of waiting means more pain and a bigger risk. The recovery period is expected to take about 6 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 $900 goes: • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $300 • Hospital stay (5 nights): $450 • Physiotherapy sessions: $100 • Post-operative medication: $50 You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it. - Kalyani

      Shared it with a few friends. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Greetings from Jakarta.
