See your MP
seen liao...sigh...mp say help me write letter...until now still nothing much done. I am the sandwich middle class, earn more than the qualifying subsidy but not rich enough to cover expenses comfortably.
You hv siblings to help out one another?
Probably you hv to make another trip to see your mp again..
got, but they got their own families, got children also got their expenses.
If possible, tell them your financial difficulties and whether they can chip in few hundred dollars also good, not for you but for parents.
First get the parent who you suspected of dementia checked out, bring to polyclinic tell doctor that you suspected such and they will refer, or if that parent already got some appointments at hospital can get them to refer also. Depending on which health group they belong to they might only refer to the hospital of the same healthgroup if there is particular hospital you find more convenient to bring for repeating hospital appointments, best find out which health group they belong to like SingHealth or National Health Group etc.. then go to the related polyclinic to get referral.
my mother housewife, father don't earn much, cpf got money, slowly trickle in each month. Bank got some savings but spend on my mother's procedure. when health problem hit you, you got 1 mil also not enough. very fast disappear.
Shouldn't be an excuse unless they stay in rental flats. Even $100 a month also good. If they cannot help much financially, they should chip in with their time/labour eg help you to access the resources available, visit your parents regularly so you can have some me-time, bring your parents to stay with them for a few days so you can take a holiday.
Yes this could help also, in fact most grants or assistance have to go through them also. But some forms requires doctor verification also.
this part easier said then done, father keeps insisting bo daiji. go see doc for what? he very stubborn don't want to go see then got mood swings...sian
