To fill in some information for passers-by. Foster parents are prevented by law or policy from sharing most information about their foster children, including pictures, health conditions, etc. If for no other reason, this is why the child in the picture is wearing his spidey mask, goes by a nickname, and health details are not shared (on the gofundme page).
It is disappointing that the local agency (DHS or DHR) cannot do more to cover the costs of care. But it is not surprising.
And lastly, thank you for being a foster parent. Hang in there.
Just a coder and a dad. I love my family and I love to code!!!! started coding at 11, so I have 25 years under my belt. Still love learning about it every day. Black lives matter!
You nailed it. Thank you for adding context. To be clear and upfront our son is blessed that he has his medical bills covered. There is so many more expenses that come from this situation and unfortunately we were not prepared for it. Thank you again. It sounds like you yourself are part of the foster community so thank you as well.
For sure, they are usually good about covering medical procedures and doctor visits. But there can be extra equipment, supplies, room modifications, etc. that are needed but not covered when the child has extra medical conditions. It is a worthwhile thing to pitch in and help fund.
