Sunil was diagnosed with a hernia that has become strangulated in March. The surgeon at Mumbai General Hospital recommended laparoscopic cyst removal, and He is scheduled for May. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $1,550, and after what my insurance will pay we're still $1,100 short.
my son has been in and out of Mumbai General Hospital since March. The doctors say a hernia that has become strangulated will get worse without laparoscopic cyst removal. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $1,550 is more than we can find.
While we wait, Sunil struggles with daily life and can't climb stairs. 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 8 weeks. During that time Sunil won't be able to climb stairs, 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 $1,100 goes:
• Physiotherapy sessions: $110
• Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $350
• Pre-operative tests and imaging: $70
• Hospital stay (2 nights): $510
• Travel and lodging for the family: $60
Thanks for being kind about this.

You're not alone, Arjun. Wishing Sunil a smooth procedure and a full recovery.
what's already covered and what's the $1,100 for?
thanks for sharing this. Hope the doctors have good news. God bless
Hope the doctors have good news. My husband and I read this together.
Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Thinking of Mumbai
Thanks for sharing this, Arjun. I hope things turn around soon. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. God bless.
