Surgery fund for Rubina: septoplasty in Nashik
After a benign brain tumor, Rubina was cleared for septoplasty, but the bill is more than we can manage.

Rubina was diagnosed with a benign brain tumor in July. The surgeon at Saint Catherine Hospital recommended septoplasty, and She is scheduled for October. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $1,000, and after what my employer's plan will pay we're still $700 short.
my sister has been in and out of Saint Catherine Hospital since July. The doctors say a benign brain tumor will get worse without septoplasty. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $1,000 is more than we can find.
While we wait, Rubina struggles with daily life and can't walk without help. 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 5 weeks. During that time Rubina won't be able to walk without help, 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 $700 goes:
• Pre-operative tests and imaging: $45
• Physiotherapy sessions: $70
• Hospital stay (5 nights): $585
Thanks for reading all this.
