Michelle was diagnosed with osteoarthritis in the right knee in October. The surgeon at Quezon City General Hospital recommended gallbladder removal, and She is scheduled for December. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $360, and after what the public health scheme will pay we're still $250 short. my daughter has been in and out of Quezon City General Hospital since October. The doctors say osteoarthritis in the right knee will get worse without gallbladder removal. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $360 is more than we can find. While we wait, Michelle struggles with daily life and can't drive. Her family has taken turns caring for her, and I've cut my own work hours to be there. Recovery is expected to take about 12 weeks. During that time Michelle won't be able to drive, so the costs keep growing. I'll pay the hospital and pharmacy directly and post every receipt in the updates section. Where the $250 goes: • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $50 • Physiotherapy sessions: $130 • Post-operative medication: $70 If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.
