Hà was diagnosed with a thyroid nodule that needs removal in August. The surgeon at Cầu Giấy Community Hospital recommended laparoscopic cyst removal, and She is scheduled for November. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $880, and after what our health plan will pay we're still $700 short. my daughter has been in and out of Cầu Giấy Community Hospital since August. The doctors say a thyroid nodule that needs removal will get worse without laparoscopic cyst removal. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $880 is more than we can find. While we wait, Hà struggles with daily life and can't walk without help. 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 10 weeks. During that time Hà won't be able to walk without help, 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 $700 goes: • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $75 • Post-operative medication: $40 • Hospital stay (3 nights): $470 • Physiotherapy sessions: $60 • Travel and lodging for the family: $55 Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot. - Trinh
