Sayali was diagnosed with a cleft palate needing repair in February. The surgeon at Lucknow Orthopedic Institute recommended palate reconstruction surgery, and She is scheduled for May. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $1,250, and after what my insurance will pay we're still $750 short. my wife has been in and out of Lucknow Orthopedic Institute since February. The doctors say a cleft palate needing repair will get worse without palate reconstruction surgery. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $1,250 is more than we can find. While we wait, Sayali 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. The recovery period is expected to take about 8 weeks. During that time Sayali 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 $750 goes: โ€ข Pre-operative tests and imaging: $80 โ€ข Travel and lodging for the family: $70 โ€ข Hospital stay (3 nights): $450 โ€ข Physiotherapy sessions: $150 I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.
