Kyung-mi was diagnosed with a cleft palate needing repair in October. The surgeon at Seongnam Regional Medical Center recommended laparoscopic endometriosis surgery, and She is scheduled for January. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $3,900, and after what the public health scheme will pay we're still $1,950 short.
my mother has been in and out of Seongnam Regional Medical Center since October. The doctors say a cleft palate needing repair will get worse without laparoscopic endometriosis surgery. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $3,900 is more than we can find.
While we wait, Kyung-mi struggles with daily life and can't look after the children alone. 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 5 weeks. During that time Kyung-mi won't be able to look after the children alone, so the costs keep growing.
I'll pay the hospital and pharmacy directly and post every receipt in the updates section.
Where the $1,950 goes:
• Physiotherapy sessions: $530
• Pre-operative tests and imaging: $200
• Hospital stay (5 nights): $1,100
• Post-operative medication: $120
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.
