Help me pay for ACL reconstruction at Hồ Chí Minh City Regional Medical Center

In June I was diagnosed with a deviated septum causing chronic infections. My surgeon at Hồ Chí Minh City Regional Medical Center recommended ACL reconstruction, and I have been placed on the schedule for October. The hospital's financial office gave me a written estimate of $2,600, and after what my insurance will pay, I'm still $1,300 short. Doctors at Hồ Chí Minh City Regional Medical Center told me a deviated septum causing chronic infections will get worse without ACL reconstruction. I work as a security guard, and I have saved what I can, but the estimate of $2,600 is far beyond what I've. Until the surgery I can't work full days, and my hours as a security guard have already been cut. Every week of waiting means more pain and a bigger risk. Recovery is expected to take about 10 weeks. I'll not be able to drive during that time, so this has become a financial emergency as well as a medical one. 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 $1,300 goes: • Post-operative medication: $40 • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $600 • Hospital stay (3 nights): $530 • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $70 • Travel and lodging for the family: $60 I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen. - My
