Sheila was diagnosed with a thyroid nodule that needs removal in February. The surgeon at Quezon City General Hospital recommended hip replacement surgery, and She is scheduled for April. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $1,100, and after what our health plan will pay we're still $550 short. my daughter has been in and out of Quezon City General Hospital since February. The doctors say a thyroid nodule that needs removal will get worse without hip replacement surgery. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $1,100 is more than we can find. While we wait, Sheila 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 3 weeks. During that time Sheila 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 $550 goes: • Post-operative medication: $35 • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $50 • Physiotherapy sessions: $70 • Travel and lodging for the family: $75 • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $320 Glad we found this place.
