Help Rattapon pay for valve repair surgery at Bang Khen Orthopedic Institute

Rattapon was diagnosed with an aortic valve defect in October. The surgeon at Bang Khen Orthopedic Institute recommended valve repair surgery, and He is scheduled for January. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $2,250, and after what the government subsidy will pay we're still $1,800 short. my husband has been in and out of Bang Khen Orthopedic Institute since October. The doctors say an aortic valve defect will get worse without valve repair surgery. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $2,250 is more than we can find. While we wait, Rattapon struggles with daily life and can't lift anything heavy. 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 10 weeks. During that time Rattapon won't be able to lift anything heavy, so the costs keep growing. I'll pay the hospital and pharmacy directly and post every receipt in the updates section. Where the $1,800 goes: • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $890 • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $165 • Hospital stay (4 nights): $670 • Physiotherapy sessions: $75 Thank you for reading my story. - Fon
