Rolando was diagnosed with a benign brain tumor in August. The surgeon at Pasig Orthopedic Institute recommended ACL reconstruction, and He is scheduled for October. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $1,850, and after what my insurance will pay we're still $1,100 short. my father has been in and out of Pasig Orthopedic Institute since August. The doctors say a benign brain tumor will get worse without ACL reconstruction. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $1,850 is more than we can find. While we wait, Rolando struggles with daily life and can't look after the children alone. His family has taken turns caring for him, and I've cut my own work hours to be there. Rehabilitation is expected to take about 6 weeks. During that time Rolando 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 $1,100 goes: • Hospital stay (4 nights): $460 • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $380 • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $105 • Post-operative medication: $45 • Physiotherapy sessions: $110 I hope life is good to you. - Neil
