SUPPORT THE KINCAID FAMILY

Donation protected
Mike and Sheila (Tornow) Kincaid are a local family from Tampico, IL.  They are the parents of 4 children under the age of 10. On Tuesday, August 16th, 2016 Mike was home and started having chest pain.  He was taken to a local hospital where they found he had an aortic dissection.  He needed major cardiac surgery, and ended up being airlifted to one hospital, and later to Northwest Memorial Hospital in Chicago, IL.  He underwent a 10 hour heart surgery on Thursday, August 18th in downtown Chicago.  He was on a ventilator for about 24 hours and things were very touch and go.  He finally was released from the hospital on August 28th to go home.  Sheila tried to go back to work on Septmeber 2nd.  She made it one day and then on Monday, September 5th Mike started to have severe pain.  He was checked out at the local hospital and transferred back to Chicago.  He is battling a nasty infection and is on constant oxygen to keep his level up.  This family of 6 has now been without any income for over 3 weeks, and are struggling.  Mike is probably not going to be able to return to his previous job ever due to the strenuous labor position that he held.  Whether you are family, friend, or do not know them at all, they could really use some support.  Medical bills have wasted no time to start coming in. If you cannot support financially, send up a prayer or positive thought for this family in need.  This is going to be a long road to healing, with bumps along the way.  This is a family that would never ask for help, but would give you the shirt of their own back to help.  Let's try and show them the same support!!!
