Help us Bring our Grandparents Home
Donation protected
Last night, March 8th, we received news that my grandma had broken her femur while on their annual vacation in Cancun.
If you knew my grandparents, you'd know that they love to travel and see the world. They are the most fun, loving, genuine people. Every year they take a trip to a different part of Mexico, this year they chose Cancun. They met with their friends who live in Seattle and from there, they flew together to Cancun. We have received lots of pictures in our family group chat of my grandparents and their friends having fun together. Unfortunately, on the second day in Cancun, which was yesterday the 8th, my grandma fell and broke her femur and needs emergent surgery to repair her leg.
In Mexico the hospitals require immediate out of pocket payment before rendering treatment. My grandpa paid the initial $2000.00 to have an X-ray and her leg reset. He then called their insurance carrier to get authorization for treatment and found that Mexico hospitals will not accept their medical insurance.
Due to the severity of my grandma’s injuries she is unable to fly on a commercial air plane at this time and needs to be flown home in a medical flight. Our family quickly learned how much these flights cost and my parents are not only devastated over my grandma’s injury but knowing the medical flights can cost $50,000, just to get her home safely so she can have the emergent surgery needed!!
Our family is asking for financial support and for lots and lots of prayers that the Lord provides for them financially, emotionally, and physically. If your heart desires and you have the means to donate to help get my grandma home, our family would greatly appreciate it. Any amount helps. And please please pray for my grandma.
Sincerely, our family.
