Cliff Makaena Fundraiser
Donation protected
I’ve recently been reminded how short and fragile life can be, as my good friend Cliff Makaena just had open heart surgery (triple bypass) on Monday 3/7. It was shock to everyone including himself as this life changing event unfolded over just a few days.
It was a 5 and a half hour surgery on and the doctors were the great. They performed a triple-bypass to open up his arteries (100% blockage, 80% blockage, 75% blockage). After surgery he said that just taking 10 steps was a lot of work after having his chest opened up, and now he can hear his own heart beating! He said to thank everyone for their support, and in his own words :
"you don't even know how much that means to me, you don't even know. I love you all."
He still has a long way to go before he can share his musical talents with us and get back in the water and surf again.
Every year Cliff has put on fundraisers for his friends and family to help others in need whenever possible. I want to take this opportunity to help him out after he has already touch the lives of so many.
Please help by making a donation towards his recovery or by sharing his story.
Cliff is an awesome musician, father and friend. He has opened his heart to thousands of people over his lifetime and now it's time for us to give a little back to help his heart recover. So let's keep catching waves for Cliff and cheering for him on his road to recovery.
Please help me share his story and donate if you can.
Thank you for your support!
