Help Dương pay for a partial thyroidectomy at Saint Matthew Hospital

Dương was diagnosed with endometriosis requiring surgery in August. The surgeon at Saint Matthew Hospital recommended a partial thyroidectomy, and He is scheduled for November. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $1,350, and after what the government subsidy will pay we're still $1,000 short. my husband has been in and out of Saint Matthew Hospital since August. The doctors say endometriosis requiring surgery will get worse without a partial thyroidectomy. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $1,350 is more than we can find. While we wait, Dương struggles with daily life and can't lift anything heavy. His family has taken turns caring for him, and I've cut my own work hours to be there. The recovery period is expected to take about 6 weeks. During that time Dương won't be able to lift anything heavy, 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 $1,000 goes: • Travel and lodging for the family: $40 • Hospital stay (5 nights): $280 • Physiotherapy sessions: $110 • Post-operative medication: $35 • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $535 Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure. - Yến
