Support needed for Retired Pastor

Support for My Parents' Medical and Rehabilitation Expenses

Dear Friends, Family, and Kind Strangers,

I am reaching out during an incredibly difficult time for my family. Both of my parents are facing serious health challenges, and it has placed an emotional and financial strain on us. My father is recovering from a severe battle with COVID-19, which has left him needing long-term rehabilitation, while my elderly mother requires constant care due to her age and her own health struggles.

My Dad’s Recovery Journey

My dad contracted COVID-19 a month ago, and while we are grateful he survived, the virus has taken a heavy toll on his body. He now needs ongoing rehabilitation to regain his strength, mobility, and independence. His road to recovery is long, and the expenses are piling up.

Caring for My Elderly Mom

At the same time, my mom, who is elderly and dealing with her own health issues, needs constant care and support. I am her primary caregiver, and I am by her side day and night. Balancing her needs with my dad’s recovery has been overwhelming, both emotionally and financially. I’ve had to step away from work to ensure my mom has the attention and care she needs. In week 4, I have been forced to leave Mom long hours sitting with Dad and try to work a few hours.

Financial Strain

Between medical bills, rehabilitation expenses, caregiving, and daily necessities, the financial burden is becoming unmanageable. Although insurance helps, many costs remain uncovered, and we’re struggling to keep up with out-of-pocket expenses. We are facing costs for medical care, physical therapy, home care, and making necessary adjustments to ensure a safe and supportive environment for both of my parents.

How You Can Help

We are humbly asking for your help in this difficult time. Your donation will go directly to covering the costs of my father’s rehabilitation and medical expenses, as well as providing care and support for my mother. This will help alleviate the financial pressure on our family so that I can focus on caring for both of my parents.

If you are unable to donate, please consider sharing this page with others who might be able to help. Every little bit counts and is deeply appreciated.

We are incredibly grateful for any support you can offer, whether it’s through a donation, a share, or simply keeping us in your thoughts and prayers. Your kindness will help us get through this tough time.

Thank you so much for your generosity and support.

With heartfelt gratitude,

Beth Bolus
