Giang was diagnosed with an aortic valve defect in August. The surgeon at Thủ Đức Orthopedic Institute recommended emergency hernia repair, and She is scheduled for November. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $1,150, and after what our health plan will pay we're still $800 short. my daughter has been in and out of Thủ Đức Orthopedic Institute since August. The doctors say an aortic valve defect 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, Giang struggles with daily life and can't drive. 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 12 weeks. During that time Giang won't be able to drive, so the costs keep growing. I'll pay the hospital and pharmacy directly and post every receipt in the updates section. Where the $800 goes: • Hospital stay (5 nights): $220 • Travel and lodging for the family: $50 • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $530 Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure. - Thắng
