Jose Barredo hasn't added a story.
My name is José Manuel and I am the son of the affected person, we live in Caracas - Venezuela. I work as a Security guard and live with my parents as a janitor in a building. Our income is very modest and the inflation in the country makes it impossible to assume any health related expenses.
My father had a fall on Thursday, September 24, where he broke his right leg femur at hip level. Currently all public hospitals have the trauma section paralyzed because it is not a priority in the pandemic. We are still looking for him to be admitted to a hospital.
When we achieve the admission in a hospital, given the situation of the country we will have to assume all the expenses at the level of supplies for the operation. This is very common here, because hospitals don't have the necessary supplies.
My salary is equivalent to less than 90 dollars a month and that calculation is momentary, in a month that figure can fall by half, due to the inflation that the country is currently suffering. Everything in the country is at international prices, especially everything related to health.
It is impossible for us to assume these expenses, we need your help to get Mr. Barredo walking again. I don't want him to be tied to a bed. If he doesn't have surgery he won't even be able to sit up, he will be tied to the bed and I really don't want that.
