Please help me, help my "Pops"

My father-in-law Charles Hoyt just received some devastating news. He needs emergency surgery to repair both of his eyes or he will become completely blind. He received a "discount" since he has no insurance, however it is still $1750 per eye. They have him scheduled for Monday Aug 28 for at least one eye, if we can come up with the funds. There shouldn't be a price tag on eye sight but I guess there is. He does everything for us, please help us before it's too late. Thank you so much.
