So my buddy is in his mid 40s, full time Grab driver suffered a stroke recently, now half of body is paralyzed, so definitely cannot drive Grab for a least a few months or worst case, forever.
and while admitted to hospital due to stroke, they've discovered his kidneys are failing as well, and he'll need to start dialysis asap...
Problem is he's the sole breadwinner for his family, has a foreign wife that can't drive (can't get driving license too due to her eyesight issues) with very limited academic qualification and limited work experience, and an elderly mom
Previously he has gotten into some very bad financial issues until he got declared bankrupt, luckily he got AKPK and well-to-do friend to bail him out from those bad shits
Now we're seeing him starting to regain back his footings, but then life is cruel, it gave him a stroke and failed kidneys
He has near zero savings as his monthly incomes all goes to paying debts and support his family, and now with no income?
We the friends also has no idea on how to start to assist them, we can chip in for some financial assistance for the time being, but not forever as each of us also has problems of their own...
Does SOCSO cover this? also and which welfare dept they should seek help from?
Need advice for friend, Grab driver got stroke
