      Let's be honest, if Daddy Paul were rich and famous would you have a problem or even mention it? It's not so much the name as the symbolism implied.

    Great she's okay. It's amazing how reasonable the Philippines is in terms of health care costs. I had food poisoning there I got two IVs and some medication. It was state of the art hospital with immediate Care by three or four nurses whenever I needed them. All I could think was oh my God this is going to cost me at least $5 to 6k. The doctor comes to me and says we don't take US Insurance you're going to have to settle it when you get back to the States. I said all right give me the damage. It was 5,000 pesos $100!!! Cost me more to file the insurance papers then to try to get the $100 back from my insurance company. I love the Philippines and the healthcare is exceptional and the healthcare facilities are exceptional. The immediate attention from the nurses was the greatest part of the stay.

    I had to go to emergency room at Lakewood Ranch Medical Center (FL, USA) in the middle of the night, a few months ago. Like Mae it was because of an unknown allergic reaction. They gave me an injection and oral medication, followed by for a couple of hours of observation. Then released me with a 5 day prescription for oral meds.
    Good thing we have good medical insurance and have met all our deductibles. Together the bills from the hospital, doctor and the prescription only cost me around $540 USD (equiv. 27,000 PHP).
    Without insurance it would’ve been over $2,600 USD (equiv. 130,000+ PHP).
    50 bucks doesn’t seem like a bad deal to me.
    I wish Mae a speedy recovery!

  • @JustABill02
    @JustABill02 2 года назад +15

    Glad she is ok. You might want to make an appointment with a Doctor/allergist to figure out what caused this. Allergies can get worse with time and repeated exposure. There is a test where they put tiny amounts of various allergen's on the skin to see what she reacts to. This way she will know what to avoid.
    He may also be able to get an epipen or its equivalent. If she has a reaction, she can use the epipen to reduce the symptoms and buy her time to get to a hospital. Epipens are a bit pricy, several hundred USD, but its better to have one and not need it than to need one and not have it...

      It was also happened to my daughter few years ago...doc do some allergy test and it came out she is allergy to prawn and cockroaches. So terrible. She is taking anti histamine for few years. But now no more trigger...cos she is not eating it anymore. And my house no more roaches...when she dine in a resto she carefully ask if the food has prawn ingredients before she order it...

That's not just healthcare. Healthcare in Cebu is very reasonable as well. Thanks for the great video and info for viewers.

  • @biff9999
    @biff9999 2 года назад +5

    First, fear upon discovery and realization of her poor condition, then nerve-wracking fear and uncertainty as you get her to the hospital, then anxiety as you wait, and then, finally, sweet relief as Mae responds to treatment. Both of you have really been through the wringer.
    Take it easy for a bit as she recovers - so gratified to know she's on the mend.

You sir are one of my favorite vloggers because of the sincerity and humility you bring to your videos. With your posts many viewers, myself included, get an epiphany of your life in the Philippines. Someday (pandemic permitting) I can experience "my bliss" as the country reopens. Again, so happy you guys are well.

    Hi Paul. Glad Baby Mae is okay now after her treatment. I had a similar experience health wise a few months ago. My hole body came out in red rashes and welts. I had pawns for dinner at night before. The doctor put it down to maybe a pawn that had not been cleaned properly. Just a thought. Sea food is the most common fault when this kind of illness happens. All the best.
