I was already facing a financial crunch and the lockdown has made the situation worse. I had a savings of Rs 2 lakh, which I spent in the first two days of hospitalization. First, I got tested for Covid-19, which cost around Rs 11,000, and then I paid for other expenses. One round of dialysis cost me around Rs 90,000. I have to undergo treatment, which will cost Rs 4 lakh, but I don’t have the money to pay for it. So, I want to go home as I cannot afford the treatment. I am seeking financial assistance from people so that I can pay for the medical expenses and get discharged from the hospital. I cannot continue to stay here even if I die tomorrow.”
