Imelda was diagnosed with a cleft palate needing repair in May. The surgeon at Pasig University Hospital recommended hip replacement surgery, and She is scheduled for July. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $1,050, and after what the public health scheme will pay we're still $850 short. my daughter has been in and out of Pasig University Hospital since May. The doctors say a cleft palate needing repair will get worse without hip replacement surgery. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $1,050 is more than we can find. While we wait, Imelda struggles with daily life and can't climb stairs. 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 8 weeks. During that time Imelda won't be able to climb stairs, 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 $850 goes: • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $390 • Hospital stay (2 nights): $220 • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $85 • Post-operative medication: $50 • Physiotherapy sessions: $80 • Travel and lodging for the family: $25 Thanks for being kind about this.
