Help Ed Kick Sepsis!

Hi,

Ed and Jordyn are two of the most loving and kind people you will ever meet! From working in early childhood education, the local food and bev industry, our city departments, and our local dispensaries, both Ed and Jordyn have always given back to the community we are all lucky to call home. If you are lucky enough to know Ed and Jordyn and their lovely kids, you are lucky enough. Now parents of 3 and local homeowners, Ed and Jordyn have fallen on tough times and need our help!

Back in February, Ed got really sick. After an ambulance ride and multiple tests, blood cultures revealed he had sepsis. The advanced stage of the infection caused him to quickly go into septic shock and he had to be transferred to Montrose for an extended ICU stay.

A few months later, Ed was sick again. This time he was transferred to Grand Junction where had had to stay for multiple days and found out the bacteria was affecting and perhaps housed in some of his peritoneal organs. After several days of advanced antibiotic care, Ed was sent home, taking extra precautions to stay healthy. They believed the infection was clear but multiple bouts of sepsis had started to take a toll on his system.

As of Father's Day, Ed is currently back in the hospital in Gunnison with yet another bout of sepsis and will need to follow up with specialists so that they can try to get this recurring infection under control. Blood cultures continue to show systemic E. coli and MRI results are pointing towards a prostate infection as the cause.

Jordyn and the kids have been by Ed as much as possible, but work and school have required multiple trips to and from hospitals and the medical bills are piling up. Family and friends want Ed and Jordyn to know that they are loved and supported beyond words and we are hoping this can help ease their burden ever so slightly!

Please donate what you can and help spread the word.
