Surgery fund for Rowena: cataract surgery in Mandaue

Rowena was diagnosed with a cleft palate needing repair in November. The surgeon at Mandaue University Hospital recommended cataract surgery, and She is scheduled for February. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $1,300, and after what my employer's plan will pay we're still $900 short. my daughter has been in and out of Mandaue University Hospital since November. The doctors say a cleft palate needing repair will get worse without cataract surgery. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $1,300 is more than we can find. While we wait, Rowena 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. Rehabilitation is expected to take about 5 weeks. During that time Rowena won't be able to stand for more than ten minutes, so the costs keep growing. I'll pay the hospital and pharmacy directly and post every receipt in the updates section. Where the $900 goes: • Physiotherapy sessions: $110 • Travel and lodging for the family: $75 • Hospital stay (3 nights): $200 • Post-operative medication: $55 • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $460 Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.
