Thủ Đức
Hiền was diagnosed with endometriosis requiring surgery in September. The surgeon at Thủ Đức Regional Medical Center recommended emergency hernia repair, and She is scheduled for November. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $310, and after what our health plan will pay we're still $250 short. my wife has been in and out of Thủ Đức Regional Medical Center since September. The doctors say endometriosis requiring surgery will get worse without emergency hernia repair. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $310 is more than we can find. While we wait, Hiền 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. Recovery is expected to take about 5 weeks. During that time Hiền won't be able to walk without help, so the costs keep growing. I'll pay the hospital and pharmacy directly and post every receipt in the updates section. Where the $250 goes: • Physiotherapy sessions: $50 • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $80 • Travel and lodging for the family: $45 • Post-operative medication: $75 Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.
