Any chance of seeing the hospital estimate?
I do, the hospital estimate is with the HelpBLESS team. Happy to answer anything else about it. Thanks for looking so closely.
hope things get better soon, Gabriel. This could happen to any of us. Please keep us posted.
Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Heloísa
The list at the bottom is the whole picture. physiotherapy sessions is the biggest at $180. It helps to be asked.
Keep going. Looking forward to the next update.
take care. Shared it with a few friends. My husband and I read this together. All the best!
Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. God bless
Thinking of you and your family, Gabriel. Get well soon. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. All the best.
Stay strong, Gabriel. Hope you get there
