We just returned from visiting our friend who had a stroke on Dec 17. He was released from Riverside Hospital on Jan 12 so it was 26 days with maybe a week in ICU. The bill was 2,000,000p. Meds was 330,000p alone. He cannot talk or walk, but moves his hands and grunts. His meds ( 7 or 8) now will be 50,000p per month. They sold their Toyota Innove at a loss as it was only 1 year old. She sold some jewelry and gold at a loss. By the way, my wife had bought some gold here that was 18k but we got it tested in Canada by Spectrix laser and it was barely 10k. Surprise, surprise.

Lesson here on the stroke is he had high blood presssure but was not taking medication for it, same as for his diabetes, as well as they had no insurance. For around 25,000p per year, they could have saved many pesos in expenses.
