is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Silas.
The list at the bottom is the whole picture. hospital stay (2 nights) is the biggest at $3,450. Thanks for asking.
Hang in there. Gave what I could, wish it was more. My neighbor had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Love from Lagos
Sending love. Get well soon. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Love from Rockford.
Thanks for sharing this, Silas. Looking forward to the next update. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. All the best.
Take care. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Take care.
So sorry you're going through this, Silas. I hope things turn around soon
Sending strength, Silas. Wishing Silas a smooth procedure and a full recovery. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Take care
Sending good thoughts, Silas. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. After 9 years in farming I know how hard it's to ask for anything.
Sending love. Shared it with a few friends. Wish I lived closer to São Paulo so I could bring a meal. Blessings!
sending good thoughts. Shared this with my family. Sent it to 38 people at work. Take care
Sending strength, Silas. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double.
Keep going. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. Don't give up. Take care.
sending love, Silas. Get well soon. My brother had a similar thing happen so this one hit home
sending good thoughts. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it.
Sending strength, Silas. This could happen to any of us. Blessings
Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Thinking of Austin.
