Thắng was diagnosed with a deviated septum causing chronic infections in August. The surgeon at Hồ Chí Minh City Orthopedic Institute recommended septoplasty, and He is scheduled for November. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $1,650, and after what our health plan will pay we're still $1,250 short. my husband has been in and out of Hồ Chí Minh City Orthopedic Institute since August. The doctors say a deviated septum causing chronic infections will get worse without septoplasty. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $1,650 is more than we can find. While we wait, Thắng struggles with daily life and can't drive. His family has taken turns caring for him, and I've cut my own work hours to be there. Recovery is expected to take about 8 weeks. During that time Thắng 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 $1,250 goes: • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $680 • Hospital stay (3 nights): $280 • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $50 • Post-operative medication: $30 • Physiotherapy sessions: $145 • Travel and lodging for the family: $65 Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.
