Tamilselvi, 42, is a mother of two living near our Tamil site. She has been raising her daughter, Gowri and son, Gowtham, on her own since the passing of her husband.

Chalice critical needs - Surgery for Tamilselvi, IndiaShe has worked hard to support them with the wages she can earn finding daily work, but the COVID-19 crisis in India has kept her from finding work. Her daughter Gowri is studying in grade 11 with the support of her generous Chalice sponsor.

For the past year, Tamilselvi has been suffering with pain in her abdomen, taking medication for stomach pain. The pain persisted to the point where she knew she needed scans for a precise diagnosis. Her doctors saw that she needed immediate surgery on her uterus. After eight days in the hospital, she underwent surgery, and was discharged six days after that.

Tamilselvi was able to get a little financial help from a relative, but her hospitalization and medication costs soared much higher than she can manage on her humble budget.
