Surgery fund for Sunil: gallbladder removal in Rohini

After gallstones with repeated infections, Sunil was cleared for gallbladder removal, but the bill is more than we can manage.

Rohini
Sunil was diagnosed with gallstones with repeated infections in June. The surgeon at Saint Elizabeth Hospital recommended gallbladder removal, and He is scheduled for August. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $430, and after what the public health scheme will pay we're still $300 short. my father has been in and out of Saint Elizabeth Hospital since June. The doctors say gallstones with repeated infections will get worse without gallbladder removal. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $430 is more than we can find. While we wait, Sunil struggles with daily life and can't drive. His family has taken turns caring for him, and I've cut my own work hours to be there. Rehabilitation is expected to take about 3 weeks. During that time Sunil won't be able to drive, so the costs keep growing. I'll pay the hospital and pharmacy directly and post every receipt in the updates section. Where the $300 goes: • Travel and lodging for the family: $35 • Post-operative medication: $65 • Hospital stay (2 nights): $200 Thanks for reading all this.
