In May I was diagnosed with a cleft palate needing repair. My surgeon at Manila Regional Medical Center recommended laparoscopic cyst removal, and I have been placed on the schedule for July. The hospital's financial office gave me a written estimate of $1,450, and after what my employer's plan will pay, I'm still $1,100 short. Doctors at Manila Regional Medical Center told me a cleft palate needing repair will get worse without laparoscopic cyst removal. I work as a warehouse packer, and I have saved what I can, but the estimate of $1,450 is far beyond what I've. Until the surgery I can't work full days, and my hours as a warehouse packer have already been cut. Every week of waiting means more pain and a bigger risk. Recovery is expected to take about 6 weeks. I'll not be able to look after the children alone during that time, so this has become a financial emergency as well as a medical one. 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 $1,100 goes: โ€ข Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $450 โ€ข Hospital stay (2 nights): $500 โ€ข Physiotherapy sessions: $150 If you're reading this, thank you.

  • Will you pay the hospital directly?

    • Teresita AbadOwnerAnswerID verifiedPhoto verified

      It comes to me first, then I pay the hospital myself and upload the receipt. I wouldn't be comfortable any other way. Happy to explain more.

  • Take care. Looking forward to the next update. My neighbor in Krakรณw donated after I showed her your page

      have you tried the local community center? They sometimes help with part of this.

      • Hope things get better soon. Shared this with my family. I'll check back for the next update
