Tuyết was diagnosed with a cleft palate needing repair in February. The surgeon at Hồ Chí Minh City University Hospital recommended emergency hernia repair, and She is scheduled for April. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $1,900, and after what the government subsidy will pay we're still $950 short. my mother has been in and out of Hồ Chí Minh City University Hospital since February. The doctors say a cleft palate needing repair will get worse without emergency hernia repair. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $1,900 is more than we can find. While we wait, Tuyết struggles with daily life and can't climb stairs. 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 Tuyết won't be able to climb stairs, 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 $950 goes: • Travel and lodging for the family: $40 • Post-operative medication: $45 • Hospital stay (4 nights): $300 • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $90 • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $475 Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.
