Surgery fund for Yogesh: gallbladder removal in Agra

Yogesh was diagnosed with osteoarthritis in the right knee in April. The surgeon at Agra Community Hospital recommended gallbladder removal, and He is scheduled for July. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $1,550, and after what our health plan will pay we're still $1,100 short. my father has been in and out of Agra Community Hospital since April. The doctors say osteoarthritis in the right knee will get worse without gallbladder 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, Yogesh struggles with daily life and can't work a full shift. His family has taken turns caring for him, and I've cut my own work hours to be there. Recovery is expected to take about 6 weeks. During that time Yogesh 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 $1,100 goes: • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $590 • Physiotherapy sessions: $80 • Hospital stay (3 nights): $430 Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.
