Teresita was diagnosed with a hernia that has become strangulated in May. The surgeon at Quezon City Community Hospital recommended laparoscopic cyst removal, and She is scheduled for August. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $2,150, and after what our health plan will pay we're still $1,300 short.
my wife has been in and out of Quezon City Community Hospital since May. The doctors say a hernia that has become strangulated will get worse without laparoscopic cyst removal. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $2,150 is more than we can find.
While we wait, Teresita struggles with daily life and can't climb stairs. 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 12 weeks. During that time Teresita won't be able to climb stairs, so the costs keep growing.
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:
• Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $550
• Pre-operative tests and imaging: $85
• Physiotherapy sessions: $80
• Hospital stay (2 nights): $585
