Support Jacobs Critical Care Treatment

Story
Updates (5)

Hello all,

I am Remya Ann Jose and I am raising funds for my brother's treatment.

My brother Jacob Jose, 26 years, works in Bangalore. He recently finished his studies and started working and had just started paying off his education loans and getting settled in Bangalore. But life gave us a jolt all of a sudden. While travelling to Bangalore on his bike, on 02nd June 2019, unfortunately he met with an accident and sustained multiple injuries.

He was first admitted to Dharmapuri Medical College Hospital immediately and underwent surgery. However, due to very poor post-op care, he went into a very dangerous and life threatening condition of sepsis.

We somehow managed to move him to Salem. He was under critical care with ventilator support for two weeks and underwent further surgeries under life support at VIMS Hospital, Salem.

Once he became stable to be shifted out, we move him to Rajagiri Hospital in Kochi( our hometown), Kerala. His infection spiked and condition fluctuated many times in between. He has till date since June 02nd, undergone 10 surgeries and still continues to be in ICU receiving critical care.

He will require continued critical care for few weeks more and will require 2-3 months of hospitalisation.

Meanwhile,the daily expenditure which is exorbitantly high, is adding up with every passing day. The cost of treatment as on 15th July 2019 has touched 23 lakhs. I sincerely thank all who have stood with us and contributed to support my brothers treatment so far. It has been a very difficult journey for my family, every day. Your support and prayers mean the world to us.

We are trying to raise more funds in view of the present situation to support Jacobs ongoing treatment. Any small amounts will help. More the hands, better the help.

Please also do keep Jacob in your prayers so that God grant him the strength and will power and courage to tide over these rough days and walk back into perfect health and into our loving arms. May Almighty God give back to all of you in multitudes.

Warm regards and prayers,
Remya Ann Jose(sister)

Hello all,

Three months down the line, Jacob is showing improvement after going through many ups and downs. By the grace of God, he is now on the road to recovery. One more wound remains to heal and we are hoping it will be healed asap. And we are looking forward to improvement in his overall health and immunity.

Thank you for your tremendous support, love and affection throughout this tough and painful journey. It means the world to us.

May God Almighty bless you all abundantly and keep all of you safe in his loving arms.

Take care.

Hello all,

Thanks for your continued support. It means the world to us.

Jacob is still in ICU and fighting back, showing gradual improvement day after day after day. He has conveyed to us he will be back soon and that we should not worry. He has another OT session scheduled on Thursday. Please continue to pray for him. Your prayers are an invisible strength.

Also, if possible, please help to spread the message to others who may be willing to contribute.

My prayers and best wishes to all who are going through rough times and seeking help through forums like Milaap. May God wipe their tears and be their guide, strength and fortress.

Warm regards,
Remya Ann Jose

Hello all,

Thank you for your kind and gracious contributions to support my brother, Jacob for his critical care treatment.

Jacob Jose, 26 yrs, working as a software professional in Bangalore; was travelling to Bangalore on 02.06.2019, when he met with the accident and sustained multiple injuries.

Jacob was brought to Rajagiri Hospital in Kochi( our hometown), Kerala few days ago and is still in ICU. He has undergone 10th surgery last Saturday, 13th of July, 2019. Those anxious moments, rather hours outside the OT, again and again, is something I hope no family has to go through ever.

By the grace of God, he is out of danger. But in a lot of pain. Doctors will be observing his condition for next couple of days to decide next course of action. He will be requiring continued critical care treatment for next couple of weeks.

Meanwhile, the cost of treatment is adding further up every passing day; has touched 22 lakhs and we are finding it difficult to meet the same. If possible, please circulate the message to more people who may be willing to help.

Please submit Jacob in your prayers for God to give him the strength to go through these rough and painful days with lot of courage.

All your love and support is invaluable to us. May God bless all of you with multitudes of what you have given for Jacob.

Thanks and warm regards,

Remya Ann Jose(sister).
