Surgery fund for Mythili: knee replacement surgery in Agra

Mythili was diagnosed with severe cataracts in both eyes in October. The surgeon at Agra Community Hospital recommended knee replacement surgery, and She is scheduled for January. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $1,550, and after what our health plan will pay we're still $1,250 short. my mother has been in and out of Agra Community Hospital since October. The doctors say severe cataracts in both eyes will get worse without knee replacement surgery. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $1,550 is more than we can find. While we wait, Mythili struggles with daily life and can't climb stairs. 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 4 weeks. During that time Mythili won't be able to climb stairs, so the costs keep growing. 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 $1,250 goes: • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $550 • Hospital stay (2 nights): $380 • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $100 • Post-operative medication: $30 • Physiotherapy sessions: $105 • Travel and lodging for the family: $85 I hope life is good to you. - Pavithra
