Medical-Expenses for Grandfather Stabbed in Oshawa
Donation protected
My name is Dinesh Dholani and I am doing this fundraiser to help support my family in need due to a sudden medical emergency. On the morning of Aug 22, 2023 my father got stabbed 17 times by an unknown person while he took my daughter in a stroller for a walk. Someone came from behind and was trying to take the stroller from my father while kept stabbing him. My father was taken to hospital and had to go under many surgeries and later was in the critical care unit.
We live in Oshawa, Ontario. My father is a Visitor in Canada, he came with my mom to help us raise our child. My father has a visitor visa insurance, but it got exhausted due to multiple surgeries and prolonged hospitalization. My family is taking care of my father and we are unable to go to work during this period. This has left us devastated, friends and family are really stressed. Any contribution from your side would help us with this difficult time.
My father was stabbed on Chest, Mouth, Neck, Throat, Jaw, Chin, Arm and Hand up to the point that he had multiple fractured bones in his forearm. A 20-year-old guy was trying to take a stroller from my father as my child was in it, he kept stabbing him while my child kept crying. My father did not let go of the stroller, instead he kept running toward our house while bleeding and seeking help. To make sure our child remains safe. Fortunately, people from the neighborhood and family heard him and responded on time. The attacker ran away when he saw other people come to help my father. Kind people took their clothes to stop the bleeding, kept him awake and called 911 immediately. My child is safe today because of my father.
An ambulance took my father to the hospital, he underwent many surgeries. Doctors kept him on a ventilator in the critical care unit for days. He survived but has multiple injuries, which will take months to heal. His fracture had to be operated twice. There are wounds that need ongoing treatment and care. Family and friends all are devastated with the mental trauma due to this horrible inhumane act.
We thank you in advance for your support. We greatly appreciate your contribution and it will be used for his treatment. Please share this post with others who can help us. Giving is not just about donation, it is about making a difference too.
