Surgery fund for Perla: cataract surgery in Bacoor

Perla was diagnosed with a torn ligament that needs reconstruction in April. The surgeon at Bacoor University Hospital recommended cataract surgery, and She is scheduled for July. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $1,150, and after what the government subsidy will pay we're still $700 short. my wife has been in and out of Bacoor University Hospital since April. The doctors say a torn ligament that needs reconstruction will get worse without cataract surgery. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $1,150 is more than we can find. While we wait, Perla struggles with daily life and can't look after the children alone. 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 12 weeks. During that time Perla won't be able to look after the children alone, 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: • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $580 • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $70 • Travel and lodging for the family: $50 I hope life is good to you. - Isabel
