Antonio Ford's Medical Operations

Hi, my name is Veronica Ford and like many of others I'm a parent, sibling, child, cousin, friend, etc, but this story isn't about me. I'm here to tell you about my brother, my best friend.

My younger brother, Antonio, better know as Man means the world to me. He is truly my first friend & my best friend. My brother can be so stubborn, but he is the most loyal, hardworking, compassionate, reliable, sincere, honest person I know. He would do anything to protect the ones he love. Honestly, he's my mother's favorite child although she would never openly admit it lol. He is truly the definition of a Man, his childhood nickname fits him so well!

Outside of all those qualities, the best thing to me is that my brother loves my children as if they were his own kids. Unfortunately, my sons father passed away 2 years ago & my brother has stepped up tremendously as a father figure for them. He constantly gets them & takes them out, he talks to them, corrects them when they get out of line, teaches them things that a Man should. Although he doesn't have children of his own yet, he is a great father figure and the best uncle in the world !

On Wednesday October 11th, 2023 my brother, Antonio Ford, & my father, Ronald Ford, were hanging out, enjoying the Phillies game at a local bar. Antonio later realized his dad having a heated conversation with another guy and went to calm the situation down, but the situation quickly escalted as the man then threatened them and an altercation took place. The guy, unfortunately, had a weapon and stabbed my brother multiple times. He had to undergo surgery as he has multiple cuts on his face, arms, hands, fingers. The guy also, slit my fathers throat and he now has a temporary tracheostomy tube in his throat. Fortunately, they both are alive.

Although my brother is home, he still has to undergo more surgeries and treatments for his hands as well as his face. I am asking for help to help my brother get all the treatments/surgeries that he needs. I truly want my family to start healing, & I don't want the extra burden of medical expenses to way in on my brother as he already has gone through enough.

Whatever you can contribute is truly appreciated.

Thank you,

Veronica ❤️
