Where Would We Get The ₱1,000,000 ($18,061.46) For His Operation?
Not a good day, everyone. I must have been publishing an article here yesterday, but my mood turned bad since I forgot to save my made draft in my PeakD account. Although I got rid of it as I watched a heart-fluttering ending of the K-Drama, I'm still inevitable to bad news the next day. Suppose you are my follower in noise.cash, I guess you would know my recent family problem. Until now, I'm still overthinking to the point that I don't worry about their bill too much. At this time, I decided to be selfish as I promised them I'd be responsible for paying our utility bills until my father became okay. That is the best thing that I can do right now.
After waking up a while ago, I opened my laptop to construct another set of goals. However, our signal is unstable, so I just charged it. My younger sister was staring at the sky, and I asked where my mom was. And after I saw her when she left the bathroom, my mother told me my father had a mild stroke. Fortunately, he arrived safely from work. At least, even if he is dizzy, he didn't get in an accident. Maybe his dizziness is because of heat or what. My mother also added that it might be because of his vices toward cigarettes and eating fried foods.
Since our Wi-Fi is blinking red and her cellphone's battery is low, she asked me if she could borrow my phone for contacting purposes. As usual, I agreed as it seemed like an emergency. Without hesitation, I called my dad on his Messenger account and gave it to my mom. Instead of him, his colleague answered the call. According to him, he's having difficulty talking and moving, so they immediately brought them to the nearest hospital. I gave him my number so they could call us using their phone.
While they were making a conversation, the other line said that his condition was getting critical. If I get it right, his colleague said that a nerve popped in his head makes my mother crazy. All of us became crazy, though. My father's co-worker asked my mom's permission for him to be admitted to that private hospital. I forgot to ask what's the name of that institution. Here is the message as evidence that I'm not lying.
Here is the translation on what the message says. "Good morning po. So, I just asked the nHere is the translation of what the message says. "Good morning po. So, I just asked the nurse. They said that 40k is the only amount that the medicard could cover. They said the payment would be 30k-40k per day if we admitted him. Then, you need to pay an initial payment of 40k. That's why I'll wait for your decision on whether you'll still go in his admission here."
As usual, my mother agreed. We don't have a choice at all, or his condition might worsen. She already interrogated his wealthy siblings, and I sometimes mentioned them in my past article. I'm lucky to have them. We're not worried much about finances since some people have a will to help her. However, I'm a bit anxious about what will happen in the upcoming days once he has recovered. And also, his colleague asked her if they needed a relative to guard my father.
Therefore, I volunteered to stay in the house while my two siblings stayed on my grandmother's side with my aunt. We have known them since birth, and I know they are safe with their hands. I stayed here because no one cared for my dogs and house. Not to brag, but I know how to do some basic household chores. In addition, I volunteered since I can't handle my siblings properly, especially since one of them is only five years old. I can't pamper her whenever she has her tantrums. And also, my younger brother is just a massive burden in the house as he plays games all day long, waiting on his blessing. I guess that we made the best decision. My mother just fetched them to my grandma's house and stayed there for an hour.
When she returned home, my mother told me that his operation might cost ₱1,000,000 ($18,061.46), and the admission per day was not yet included. I didn't even hesitate to post it on my noise account as it is a problematic situation. Even though my dad will work for a year just to pay his hospital debts, it would not take such years. His earnings are only enough for our daily needs and occasional wants. And although my relatives could help us financially, I guess it is not yet enough. They are not earning like Gates, Jobs, Musk, and other high-profile entrepreneurs. My mother talked to him even for a quick time, and I asked her to take a screenshot. She knows that I'm a blogger who earns from writing his life.
Our struggle in financial doesn't end here yet. As you know, I will be studying in a private school since I want to follow the steps of my relatives who were successful abroad. Helping myself financially would be a tough challenge for me. If I find a scholarship and legit paying freelance job, I guess I would lessen my problems in the financial aspect. If I were just rich, my issues in this world would decrease.
As I want to post my wallets where you can send your donations, I could not do that. I'm still uncertain about the exact bill, and I will update you.
It's such an unfortunate incident. Hoping that your dad will get better in no time. Try to seek help in different institutions, such as PCSO to handle the expenses. Nevertheless, may you keep your faith and hope in these trying times. I wish you nothing but the best in life.
