Hubballi
Shuvo was diagnosed with a thyroid nodule that needs removal in July. The surgeon at Hubballi Orthopedic Institute recommended a partial thyroidectomy, and He is scheduled for September. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $1,350, and after what our health plan will pay we're still $1,000 short. my son has been in and out of Hubballi Orthopedic Institute since July. The doctors say a thyroid nodule that needs removal will get worse without a partial thyroidectomy. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $1,350 is more than we can find. While we wait, Shuvo struggles with daily life and can't look after the children alone. His family has taken turns caring for him, and I've cut my own work hours to be there. The recovery period is expected to take about 7 weeks. During that time Shuvo won't be able to look after the children alone, 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 $1,000 goes: • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $290 • Hospital stay (3 nights): $510 • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $50 • Post-operative medication: $55 • Physiotherapy sessions: $55 • Travel and lodging for the family: $40 Thanks for being kind about this. - Priya
