Ramesh was diagnosed with severe cataracts in both eyes in October. The surgeon at London Regional Medical Center recommended spinal decompression surgery, and He is scheduled for January. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $1,350, and after what the public health scheme will pay we're still $1,000 short.
my father has been in and out of London Regional Medical Center since October. The doctors say severe cataracts in both eyes will get worse without spinal decompression surgery. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $1,350 is more than we can find.
While we wait, Ramesh struggles with daily life and can't climb stairs. His family has taken turns caring for him, and I've cut my own work hours to be there.
Recovery is expected to take about 8 weeks. During that time Ramesh won't be able to climb stairs, so the costs keep growing.
The money goes straight to the treatment bills, and I'll share the invoices as they're paid so you can see exactly what your gift did.
Where the $1,000 goes:
• Physiotherapy sessions: $480
• Travel and lodging for the family: $310
• Post-operative medication: $210
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.
