Thanks for sharing this. Your post was clear and honest. After 15 years in accounting I know how hard it's to ask for anything. God bless
keep going. Hope the doctors have good news. God bless.
everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Greetings from Hồ Chí Minh City.
Can I help in a way that isn't money? I'm near Howrah!
Thank you. If you're in Howrah I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. Happy to explain more.
you're not alone, Ajay. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. Don't give up!
best of luck. Hope the doctors have good news. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust.
keep going. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Love from Gaya
Hope it all works out, Ajay. Shared it with a few friends. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double
Hope the doctors have good news. I hope December is when things finally get easier. Love from Mumbai
