Rani was diagnosed with osteoarthritis in the right knee in June. The surgeon at Nagpur Orthopedic Institute recommended emergency hernia repair, and She is scheduled for September. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $430, and after what the government subsidy will pay we're still $300 short. my daughter has been in and out of Nagpur Orthopedic Institute since June. The doctors say osteoarthritis in the right knee will get worse without emergency hernia repair. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $430 is more than we can find. While we wait, Rani struggles with daily life and can't stand for more than ten minutes. 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 Rani won't be able to stand for more than ten minutes, 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 $300 goes: • Physiotherapy sessions: $150 • Travel and lodging for the family: $30 • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $75 • Post-operative medication: $45 Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.
