Surgery fund for Yaowalak: gallbladder removal in Bangkok
After a large ovarian cyst, Yaowalak was cleared for gallbladder removal, but the bill is more than we can manage.
🇹🇭 Bangkok, Bangkok, Thailand2,143 views
Yaowalak was diagnosed with a large ovarian cyst in February. The surgeon at Bangkok Regional Medical Center recommended gallbladder removal, and She is scheduled for May. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $3,100, and after what my employer's plan will pay we're still $1,850 short.
my mother has been in and out of Bangkok Regional Medical Center since February. The doctors say a large ovarian cyst will get worse without gallbladder removal. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $3,100 is more than we can find.
While we wait, Yaowalak 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 Yaowalak 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 $1,850 goes:
• Hospital stay (5 nights): $440
• Post-operative medication: $115
• Physiotherapy sessions: $195
• Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $980
• Pre-operative tests and imaging: $120
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

Wishing you peace. Get well soon. Sent it to 12 people at work. God bless
Keep going, Rungnapa. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Wish I lived closer to San Diego so I could bring a meal. Take care.
Is there anything that isn't money that would help Yaowalak?
Sharing the link is the biggest thing. And if you know anything about hospital stay (5 nights), advice is welcome too. Thanks, that means a lot.
your post was clear and honest. Thinking of Bangkok.
Keep going, Rungnapa. Hope this works out for you. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust.
So sorry you're going through this, Rungnapa. Hope the doctors have good news. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Love from Nagpur
