Vishnu's laparoscopic cyst removal can't wait - please help us cover the bill

Vishnu was diagnosed with a torn ligament that needs reconstruction in August. The surgeon at Hubballi Regional Medical Center recommended laparoscopic cyst removal, and He is scheduled for October. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $1,700, and after what my insurance will pay we're still $1,200 short. my husband has been in and out of Hubballi Regional Medical Center since August. The doctors say a torn ligament that needs reconstruction will get worse without laparoscopic cyst removal. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $1,700 is more than we can find. While we wait, Vishnu struggles with daily life and can't stand for more than ten minutes. 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 8 weeks. During that time Vishnu won't be able to stand for more than ten minutes, 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 $1,200 goes: • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $590 • Hospital stay (2 nights): $350 • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $60 • Post-operative medication: $70 • Physiotherapy sessions: $90 • Travel and lodging for the family: $40 Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.
