Help Kim pay for a craniotomy at Thủ Đức General Hospital
A scheduled a craniotomy in October is out of reach without help covering $1,050 of the cost.

Kim was diagnosed with endometriosis requiring surgery in July. The surgeon at Thủ Đức General Hospital recommended a craniotomy, and She is scheduled for October. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $2,100, and after what my employer's plan will pay we're still $1,050 short.
my mother has been in and out of Thủ Đức General Hospital since July. The doctors say endometriosis requiring surgery will get worse without a craniotomy. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $2,100 is more than we can find.
While we wait, Kim struggles with daily life and can't lift anything heavy. 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 Kim won't be able to lift anything heavy, 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 $1,050 goes:
• Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $550
• Hospital stay (4 nights): $290
• Pre-operative tests and imaging: $55
• Post-operative medication: $35
• Physiotherapy sessions: $70
• Travel and lodging for the family: $50
Thank you so much.
