Surgery fund for Neelam: septoplasty in Kochi
Neelam needs septoplasty at Kochi Regional Medical Center and the family is $250 short of the hospital's estimate.

Neelam was diagnosed with a large ovarian cyst in December. The surgeon at Kochi Regional Medical Center recommended septoplasty, and She is scheduled for March. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $310, and after what my employer's plan will pay we're still $250 short.
my mother has been in and out of Kochi Regional Medical Center since December. The doctors say a large ovarian cyst will get worse without septoplasty. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $310 is more than we can find.
While we wait, Neelam 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 3 weeks. During that time Neelam 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 $250 goes:
• Pre-operative tests and imaging: $80
• Post-operative medication: $40
• Physiotherapy sessions: $130

Is there anything that isn't money that would help Neelam?
Sharing the link is the biggest thing. And if you know anything about pre-operative tests and imaging, advice is welcome too. Fair thing to want to know.
hope the doctors have good news. Greetings from Łódź
How is Neelam doing now?
Thinking of you and your family, Gaurav. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust.
Keep going. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Love from Vigo.
Rooting for you. Hope you get there. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Greetings from Lahore.
