Warangal
Popy was diagnosed with a large ovarian cyst in August. The surgeon at Warangal Orthopedic Institute recommended a partial thyroidectomy, and She is scheduled for October. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $860, and after what the government subsidy will pay we're still $600 short. my mother has been in and out of Warangal Orthopedic Institute since August. The doctors say a large ovarian cyst will get worse without a partial thyroidectomy. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $860 is more than we can find. While we wait, Popy 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. The recovery period is expected to take about 12 weeks. During that time Popy 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 $600 goes: โ€ข Physiotherapy sessions: $60 โ€ข Hospital stay (2 nights): $320 โ€ข Post-operative medication: $50 โ€ข Pre-operative tests and imaging: $90 โ€ข Travel and lodging for the family: $80 Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.

    Really cared about my situation

    I was going through a tough time and this person's support was invaluable. They didn't judge, just helped. That kind of genuine compassion is rare these days.
