Sheila was diagnosed with a torn ligament that needs reconstruction in January. The surgeon at Angeles University Hospital recommended laparoscopic cyst removal, and She is scheduled for April. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $1,950, and after what the public health scheme will pay we're still $1,450 short. my mother has been in and out of Angeles University Hospital since January. The doctors say a torn ligament that needs reconstruction will get worse without laparoscopic cyst removal. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $1,950 is more than we can find. While we wait, Sheila 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. Rehabilitation is expected to take about 4 weeks. During that time Sheila 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 $1,450 goes: • Hospital stay (4 nights): $600 • Travel and lodging for the family: $40 • Physiotherapy sessions: $135 • Post-operative medication: $50 • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $625 If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people. - Divina
