Jae-won was diagnosed with a hip fracture that never healed properly in August. The surgeon at Busan Regional Medical Center recommended hip replacement surgery, and He is scheduled for November. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $3,650, and after what my employer's plan will pay we're still $2,200 short. my brother has been in and out of Busan Regional Medical Center since August. The doctors say a hip fracture that never healed properly will get worse without hip replacement surgery. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $3,650 is more than we can find. While we wait, Jae-won struggles with daily life and can't climb stairs. 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 4 weeks. During that time Jae-won 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 $2,200 goes: • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $370 • Post-operative medication: $115 • Travel and lodging for the family: $165 • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $1,550 I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

  • I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Love from Ciudad de México.

    • sending good thoughts, Jun-seo. Gave what I could, wish it was more. I went through something like this 14 years ago and strangers helped me out. Blessings.

      • everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Love from Zagazig
