Help Erica pay for emergency hernia repair at Calamba University Hospital

Erica was diagnosed with a cleft palate needing repair in August. The surgeon at Calamba University Hospital recommended emergency hernia repair, and She is scheduled for October. 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 sister has been in and out of Calamba University Hospital since August. The doctors say a cleft palate needing repair will get worse without emergency hernia repair. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $1,150 is more than we can find. While we wait, Erica struggles with daily life and can't walk without help. Her family has taken turns caring for her, and I've cut my own work hours to be there. The recovery period is expected to take about 10 weeks. During that time Erica won't be able to walk without help, 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 $900 goes: • Post-operative medication: $35 • Travel and lodging for the family: $70 • Hospital stay (4 nights): $200 • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $530 • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $65 Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.
