for my uncle

here is my uncle please help us for his dialysis

If he is already hospitalized with a breathing tube they have started him on emergency dialysis and you have spoken to someone with the hospital about insurance and payment.

Depending on the country you live in even if your family is poor, like mine, the government will subsidize (pay part, most, or all of the cost of) insurance for him or put him on total disability and a program like Medicare will pay for his dialysis. When a person has a disability in the United States, the government will give them disability payments each month to subsidize their cost of living. There are many programs available to help the poor who are disabled.

My family was very poor but when I had to go the emergency room for pain, swelling, and blood in my urine they started me on emergency dialysis. They did surgery to put a dialysis access in my arm and I never paid out of pocket money for any of that! The only money I ever had to pay was a few dollars a month for my prescription drugs.

So continue to talk with the advisors and doctors at the hospital about what programs are available to help your uncle. *wink, wink*

Aireen, where do you live? I'm so sorry you & your family are going thru this & we'll keep you all in our prayers! Keep up the hope & faith. Smithischristopher has given great advice & suggestions. Talk with a Social Worker-they are there for exactly that reason! To help you find support however you need it-financially, emotionally, even transportation, etc. Good luck. It really would help to know where you're at tho.
