Fe was diagnosed with endometriosis requiring surgery in March. The surgeon at Quezon City University Hospital recommended ACL reconstruction, and She is scheduled for June. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $1,150, and after what our health plan will pay we're still $900 short. my mother has been in and out of Quezon City University Hospital since March. The doctors say endometriosis requiring surgery will get worse without ACL reconstruction. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $1,150 is more than we can find. While we wait, Fe struggles with daily life and can't work a full shift. Her family has taken turns caring for her, and I've cut my own work hours to be there. Rehabilitation is expected to take about 5 weeks. During that time Fe won't be able to work a full shift, so the costs keep growing. I'll pay the hospital and pharmacy directly and post every receipt in the updates section. Where the $900 goes: • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $105 • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $580 • Physiotherapy sessions: $140 • Travel and lodging for the family: $75 Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself. - Carlo
