It was just an awful accident. His parents do not hold us responsible but the bills still keeps coming. Is there any kind of aid that helps families with this problem
My response:
Please don't misunderstand what I am about to say. I don't mean for it to sound cold-hearted, and I can empathize with your feelings of pain and anguish, and those of the parents.
However, this matter is not your responsibility at all. The parents should have had insurance for their family and, all because they were not foresighted in protecting themselves with insurance, does not mean that you have to take on this burden, to the point of emotionally distressing yourself.
The plain fact of the matter is that their family just might be forced into Bankruptcy, and because they failed to have insurance, the bills are their fault - - not yours.
Accidents like this are horrible, and the pain only increases when creditors start knocking on your door over their bills. But, your neighbor took a calculated risk by not protecting their assets and not having medical insurance. It's a shame, but this is how life goes sometimes.
I wish the parents only the best, and my sincere condolences.
