Marco.. My sister in law had two huge tumours in her head 2 years ago.. Financially they can only be classified as poor.
With the families help she ended up in PGH in Manila where she eventually had surgery..
Her chances of a successful outcome were extremely low but today she is back to her old self running her sari sari store in the province.. I still cannot believe it!!
Of course, lung cancer is a different matter and I have heard from people that have had it that Chemo therapy ain't cheap..Mind you..That treatment was received in a private hospital..
That said,rest assured that your mother in law is in the best public hospital in the R.P as far as I know..
Lets hope and pray for the best.
Regards,
Fred.
