Help Tim and Anna cover medical costs
Donation protected
Hi, we are Kate and Ros, Tim is our brother. Tim and Anna haven't asked for this to be done, and they are unlikely to ask for any financial help but we were hoping their family and friends may consider helping them out during this stressful and uncertain time.
During 2021 Tim started developing chest pains and required hospitalisation for treatment and ongoing investigations. After months of waiting for tests, results to come back, and appointments with specialists it was found that Tim has a number of blockages in his main coronary artery and needs to undergo open heart surgery in order to resolve his chest pain and significantly reduce the risk of other heart problems. Tim is scheduled for surgery on the 4th January 2022. This involves some initial recovery time in ICU and then staying on the ward afterwards. Tim will then be extremely restricted in the activities that he can do for the following 4-6mths. He'll be unable to do any heavy lifting (not even meant to lift 2L of milk) which means their business and main income source will have to be put on hold for up to 6 months. Tim and Anna had been saving what they can to give them the extra financial buffer to get them through this stage. Unfortunately Anna had to undergo emergency eye surgery on New Years day which has meant they've had extra unexpected costs and now Anna needs to recover from an operation at the same time Tim is scheduled to have his major surgery.
Wouldn't it be great if we could pull together a little extra money to help alleviate some of the financial burden and stress Tim and Anna are going to be facing in these next few months. This will help them to focus on the important stuff like recovering and healing as best they can so they can back on their feet as soon as possible and focusing on their children. If you are able to contribute, even if it's just a little, I'm sure it will help Tim and Anna immensely. If you live local to Tim and Anna and would prefer to help out in other practical ways this would be no doubt a huge help as well. Tim and Anna are both unable to drive for 6 weeks post operatively so if you think you might be able to help in anyway please be in touch.
Thank you in advance for your willingness to help!
