Caloocan
Charmaine was diagnosed with osteoarthritis in the right knee in June. The surgeon at Caloocan Orthopedic Institute recommended septoplasty, and She is scheduled for September. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $1,950, and after what our health plan will pay we're still $1,450 short. my wife has been in and out of Caloocan Orthopedic Institute since June. The doctors say osteoarthritis in the right knee will get worse without septoplasty. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $1,950 is more than we can find. While we wait, Charmaine struggles with daily life and can't stand for more than ten minutes. Her family has taken turns caring for her, and I've cut my own work hours to be there. Recovery is expected to take about 3 weeks. During that time Charmaine won't be able to stand for more than ten minutes, 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: • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $670 • Hospital stay (3 nights): $490 • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $105 • Post-operative medication: $45 • Physiotherapy sessions: $100 • Travel and lodging for the family: $40 With deep gratitude, John Paul
