Surgery fund for Vani: spinal decompression surgery in Aurangabad

Vani was diagnosed with a large ovarian cyst in June. The surgeon at Aurangabad University Hospital recommended spinal decompression surgery, and She is scheduled for September. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $600, and after what my insurance will pay we're still $450 short. my daughter has been in and out of Aurangabad University Hospital since June. The doctors say a large ovarian cyst will get worse without spinal decompression surgery. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $600 is more than we can find. While we wait, Vani 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 10 weeks. During that time Vani won't be able to walk without help, so the costs keep growing. I'll pay the hospital and pharmacy directly and post every receipt in the updates section. Where the $450 goes: • Travel and lodging for the family: $50 • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $50 • Hospital stay (5 nights): $350 With deep gratitude, Mohit
