Pls who wish to donate seperately for this cause can mail back, or if they wish part of their monthly donations already made channelled to this, pls mail so aswell - like sunil & prasad did. Yasoda - the money we have with us now - wht is the break up in terms of members? Whose donations amounted to tht I mean - so tht we can mail/talk to them directly if they are ok on using some of it to this cause. I am sending a seperate cheque to chandra on this one for 100$. ************* Some info to remember abt situations like these: Last month one of my cousins MIL came here for vadina's delivery and had to undergo a ER Biopsy. She had no visitor insurance, and once admitted since it was an ER case, the procedure was performed, and she was in intensive care for almost 10 days following an angiogram (?) etc. Bill was a good 20k plus on the first phase, and 30 plus on the second, only for the third prescription & clinic outpatient bills yet to follow. Quite obviously my cousin was looking for other options. I was knocking some doors for him aswell, asking around if there is a way out we are not aware of. One of my close frnds is a doc in county hospital of New York and according to him, its a law here tht medical care cannot be denied to a patient in serious need - becos of financial reasons. Patient later will be given other options tht suit his money situation. We need to contact 'Social Worker' of the concerned hosp, and many times they waive a good % of the bill, and forward the balance to other NGO's registered with them & see if they take up the bills on patient's behalf, or give the patient an option to meet the bill in multiple instalments down to whichever many years it takes. This is an FYI to US members here, just so u know that certain options do exist, in case. Divya On 9/27/07, suresh <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: An update: Just spoke to Mahender Kanaparthi. He is out of danger, but doctors are not able to tell yet when he can come out of coma. One good sign is - starting from today he is able to breath with nose (instead of mouth) and bad sign is - swelling started. Doctors said they may have to do a surgery. There is a lot of pressure on the hospital, so they are keeping the patient in. They had a problem with the online payment system and it will be restored by tomorrow morning. suresh <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: I will donate as well. Let's also forward this to everybody we know in our circle and ask them to do the same. We need more than few $100 dollars to help suresh get back on his feet.
