<div>Hello, I am raising £7500 for my grandfather's T.U.R.P surgery.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>I have been caring for my Papa since august 2024, after he was rushed into hospital with sepsis, which was due to a UTI that had not been treated.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>He was then diagnosed with benign prostate enlargement. He was put on a catheter and then sent home. A month later he was rushed to the hospital again with sepsis caused by an infection in his catheter.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>He was put on a medication called tamsulosin, hoping to get him off the catheter. Unfortunately, that was unsuccessful.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>After many failed catheter removal tests, he had an infection every month until the catheter was taken out in February 2025, after he was put on finasteride.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Since getting the catheter out, he is still very unwell. He has a recurring UTI each month, which is triggering an episode of delirium. Once the UTI is treated the episode ends, but his memory and confusion won't get better for a week or two; and then the cycle starts again in 2-3 weeks.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>It's been a horrible cycle for not only my papa but the rest of the family.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We have been on the waiting list for the past year to see a urologist through the NHS but we have had no follow up, no plan for his care. I have tried to speed things up by contacting his GP, by phoning the hospital, but we have had no support. It feels like neglect from the NHS.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>I took my papa to see a urologist privately. The consultant is fantastic. He suggested that my papa should have a TURP procedure which would allow him to urinate without strain. It would also mean a better quality of life for my papa by significantly reducing the chance of further infections.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>The price of the surgery is £7500.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>My papa doesn't have any savings due to the passing of my nan, his wife, in late 2021. He is my only remaining grandparent, and I don't want the unthinkable to happen through him getting sepsis or god forbid anything else.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Any donations to help towards this cause would be grateful and appreciated &lt;3
</div>
