Vidya was diagnosed with severe cataracts in both eyes in August. The surgeon at Mumbai Regional Medical Center recommended ACL reconstruction, and She is scheduled for November. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $1,150, and after what our health plan will pay we're still $850 short. my sister has been in and out of Mumbai Regional Medical Center since August. The doctors say severe cataracts in both eyes will get worse without ACL reconstruction. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $1,150 is more than we can find. While we wait, Vidya struggles with daily life and can't work a full shift. Her family has taken turns caring for her, and I've cut my own work hours to be there. Rehabilitation is expected to take about 5 weeks. During that time Vidya won't be able to work a full shift, 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 $850 goes: • Travel and lodging for the family: $55 • Hospital stay (3 nights): $260 • Physiotherapy sessions: $85 • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $380 • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $70 If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people. - Mythili
