URGENT FUNDING NEEDED FOR MY AILING FATHER

Thank you so much for everything you have given us. With your help and God’s grace, our father has seen improvements which a while before, did not seem plausible. Along with these ups, there have been downs as well, and the fight is still on.

Our father right now is under emergency care, and he has been bed-ridden at home for the last 6 months. He has had tracheostomy for the last 6 months as well, which is not in a condition to be removed right now, as confirmed by our doctor. He is fed through PEG Tube (Liquid Feeding) and requires 24-hour nursing care. And while there have been improvements, the progress remains very slow. We still do not know how long it would take for him to fully recover, but we keep hope that it will be sooner rather than later.

Our total expense so far has been around 13.5 Lakhs INR. This includes the hospitalization charges of around 8.5 Lakhs INR, and for the last 6 months, in home care, the expenses have been around 5 Lakhs. This comes to around INR 75000 each month.

Between the nurse, other consumables - the catheter for urine which needs to be changed every month, the Molina sheets and the gloves, there’s a huge number of consumables each day and requires a significant amount of expenditure. Here is the breakdown of the 5 Lakhs:
•    Nurse: INR 51000/Month – INR 1700/Day
•    Physiotherapy: INR 9600/Month
•    Medicines and others: INR 10000/month
•    Suction, Catheter – 10-15 Each Day – INR 120-180/Day (Approx)
•    Molina Sheets – 2 Each Day – INR 300/Packet (Approx)
•    Sterile Gloves – 15-20/Day – INR 450/Box (Approx)
All of these contribute to around INR 5500/Month.

As our father continues recover, we expect the INR 75000 to be a recurring expense each month, and at this point of time, we are falling critically short of funds. If our father must keep this fight up for another 6 months, we will require a funding of approximately 5 Lakhs INR.
You will be encouraged to know that he is completely conscious and oriented to his surroundings, and we communicate with him through gestures and lip - reading. This also means that he cannot be left unattended.

Please see attached all the documents related and pertaining to my father’s recovery and expenses. We would be happy to provide any additional details to whoever wishes to go through them. Once again, thank you for everything you have done for us, and hopefully, you find it in yourself to help us once again.

Our Best Wishes,
Gaurav & Trinayan Barthakur
