URGENT: Medical Debt for Accident & Cancer
Donation protected
Hello everyone, I’ve never done this before so please bear with me.
In February this year (2021), my mother was hit by a delivery van and they accidentally seriously fractured her hip bone. She couldn’t move for a month while she got rest & treatment. She had pre-existing issues with her uterus since December 2020.
Then in June 2021, my grandfather passed away after a long battle with prostate cancer. My other grandfather got pneumonia in October this year and was in the ICU for a couple of weeks. We have paid for medical bills, funeral expenses, etc through loans and we are in huge debt, but my mother refuses to ask for help.
My mother is the only one that earns regularly in the family, but it’s been really difficult trying to make ends meet with so much debt. I have younger siblings, I attend college-full time, and work part-time while taking care of my grandparents (while being disabled myself), but it still isn’t enough. We live in a third-world country so I don’t earn even close to the same minimum wage in the first-world, so please consider donating even the smallest amount. I would be very grateful.
My friend is organizing this GFM for me. This money will help me pay for our medical bills, rent, food, transport, school, etc. Even the smallest amount could help us a lot. Thank you so much to anyone and everyone who is able to share, donate, or support me in any way. It means the world during this difficult time, and I truly appreciate the help I am able to get from everyone
