Old Granddad needs a heart transplant but you cant find a hospital willing to do it because of his advanced age (90). But there are plenty of hospitals in India that will do it, and in fact much less expensively than it would cost here. So he buys two first-class tickets to India because he needs you as escort and helper, which youre happy to do because of course you love Old Granddad, but for whom you wouldnt be here. You stay in a hotel across from the hospital for a month to oversee and help with his recovery before flying back home with him. None of the costs involved are covered by insurance; he pays for everything.

Explain how much, if any, of the cost of this trip would qualify as a Schedule A medical expense deduction on Old Granddads 1040?
