Kyle's Shark Attack Medical Fund
My name is Candace and my boyfriend, Kyle Senkowicz, was attacked by an eight foot bullshark on Wednesday, 4/15/2016, just outside of Riviera Beach. He was free diving for cobia and while swimming to the surface was attacked from the side. He was rushed to St. Marys hospital where he underwent a 4 hour surgery to reconnect seven tendons in his hand and one in his tricep. He also had torn muscles and soft tissue in both his bicep and tricep. He remained in the hospital four days. The doctor has explained to him and his family that he will not be capable of using his hand for the next six or more weeks and that he will have to attend physical therapy four times a week for the same amount of time. His medical bills are being 80% covered by his insurance and he will still need to pay a deductible of 4780 dollars, not including ambulance, medication, physical therapy, or everyday expenses. Since he is not able to work for at least six weeks due to the injuries in his hand he will be tight on money and could use all the help he can get.
A huge thank you to every one who has contacted him and looked out for his best interest in this rough time. Anymore help would be greatly appreciated to get Kyle back into the water to do what he loves.
