Please Help Me send my Brother Home
Spende geschützt
My name is Evrol Martin and I currently live in New York with my wife Simone Martin and two young boys who are 7 and 5 years old. My brother Wendell Henry riding the horse recently arrived to USA from Jamaica to start a new life for himself only 6 months ago!
Tragically on June 7th he went to the gym did his set of chest flies stood up and immediately drop to the ground and started to have seizures. He was rushed to the hospital where he suffered 2 cardiac arrest and 17 shocks to the heart. Yesterday we had to make the hard decision to pull him off life support as he was deemed clinical brain dead.
As you can imagine the whole family is in complete shock and his family and friends need closure in Jamaica! It is hard for all of us to swallow that he was a young healthy man with a bright future and now he is gone. The majority of his family(Mother, Father, Grandmother, sisters, brother and nieces and nephews) are down in Jamaica and would not have the ability to fly up here to say their farewells as they do not have visas!
I am asking for any donations as I am still mourning him myself but I have to do everything in my power to get my brother back to his homeland where he deserves to be! My brother did not have life insurance and as you have read his death was so sudden that this is a financial strain on all of his love ones! The whole bill has been given to me to handle but as I mention earlier I am a family man who has responsibility and unfortunately do not have several of thousands of dollars To send him home . It is $5248.00 from the funeral home in New Jersey by itself please see the attached contract and we also have to make arrangements down in Jamaica to get him buried which will be additional money ranging from $2000-$5000. So far we are trying all means to keep it closer to $2000 by having him buried on my family land. However, we still have to dig out the area where he will be laid to rest and have Roberts funeral Home located in Jamaica pick his body up at the airport so they have to get permission to get him in, flowers, the service and handouts all start to accumulate very quickly. I have already made some payments out of my pockets to just get this process started! Such as his suit also had to pay property taxes on my family land in order to get the permits. Once again out of my pockets as I do not plan on withdrawing money from the donations for the small purchases but for the funeral homes which is my main priority!
Here is a video of the Doctor explaining to us that my brother did not make it! Please help with any amount to get my brother back home and share with as many people as well! My family truly is in need of closure! Thank you for all of your support!
