Brandon Battles Deadly Infection
Donation protected
Hello and God bless you for coming here and reading Brandon's story. So many wonderful people have been praying for Brandon's recovery. But, the infection just seems to persist. It has gone on for so long, the financial situation is desperate.
Since September of 2015, Brandon has been in and out of the hospital. He has had a stroke and a brain aneursym. The stroke left him numb on his left side. His brain aneursym is still there untreated so far. The root cause was traced to a blood infection and manifest itself on his heart valve. Well, his doctors have treated him over and over with antibiotics. But, the infection keeps coming back. Now, it has caused his feet and toes to swell so much he cannot walk. He is currently at the the Beckley VA Medical Center undergoing treatment. They have started talking about heart valve replacement and amputation. We are not sure what the plan is.
Sadly, Brandon is not able to work and provide for his Child's mother and 3 year old daughter.
Brandon is my son. He is 33 years old. He served in the US Army. He fought for the liberation of Iraq during the Iraqi Freedom campaign. While on patrol, he was wounded by an RPG attack on the Bradley vehicle he was riding in. So, he has has partial (30%) disability to help. But, he, cannot survive on such a small stipend.
Brandon's mother and I are in our 60's. We have no retirement savings. I do repair services when I can. But, my health is failing now too. I try to send Brandon's family money each week . But, with my income declining, I cannot keep it up. An angel in our church donated a car to them. It is a 98 Ford Expedition with 400K miles on it. But, thank God, it has gotten him to the hospital every time so far.
As with any family, they have bills. His family needs food, clothing and shelter. They are currently surviving day to day.
If you can find it within your heart to give a small amount to help, you can be assured it will be used wisely.
