A Facebook page "Help Kawaljeet Kaur" has been created to raise funds for an Indian foreign domestic worker in Singapore to cover her medical expenses.

Kawaljeet Kaur, who was working for an Indian expatriate family here, suffered from a brain aneurysm on May 3, 2015.

According to an appeal made on the Facebook page, Kawaljeet complained of a headache and nausea, and lost consciousness on Sunday.

She was subsequently admitted to Changi General Hospital and underwent one surgery, but may possibly require more operations.

A photo of a tax invoice with a bill of $15,304.13 was posted on the page as proof and it showed Kawaljeet was admitted to Changi General Hospital on May 3.

And according to an earlier post, the estimated medical costs could be between $50,000 and $100,000, while the insurance for the foreign domestic worker covers only up to $15,000.
