Hằng was diagnosed with a thyroid nodule that needs removal in July. The surgeon at Nha Trang Regional Medical Center recommended cataract surgery, and She is scheduled for September. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $1,400, and after what our health plan will pay we're still $700 short. my mother has been in and out of Nha Trang Regional Medical Center since July. The doctors say a thyroid nodule that needs removal will get worse without cataract surgery. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $1,400 is more than we can find. While we wait, Hằng 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. The recovery period is expected to take about 6 weeks. During that time Hằng 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 $700 goes: • Physiotherapy sessions: $85 • Hospital stay (5 nights): $530 • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $50 • Travel and lodging for the family: $35 Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly. - Bảo
