Could you add a copy of the care agency's quote with private details blacked out?
Yes, I've it and I've sent it to the moderators. I'll also put a copy up in the updates with my details hidden. I'll keep the page updated.
Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Thinking of Mendoza.
A colleague of mine might know someone for this in Mendoza. I'll ask around and let you know.
is there anything that isn't money that would help Óscar?
Thank you. If you're in Mendoza I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. Good question.
Wishing Óscar a smooth procedure and a full recovery.
Praying for you, Beatriz. This could happen to any of us. I have a 6 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Love from Setagaya.
Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Óscar.
You're not alone. It takes guts to ask. Well done.
Praying for you. This could happen to any of us.
How is Óscar doing now?
Take care, Beatriz. Shared it with a few friends.
Looking forward to the next update. I'll check back for the next update. Thinking of Mendoza.
I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. I went through something like this 8 years ago and strangers helped me out. Take care.
good luck, Beatriz. Shared this with my family. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money.
sending good thoughts. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier
Sending love, Beatriz. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. We're a small family in Santos but we're thinking of you. Take care
sending good thoughts. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Don't give up. All the best
