So many people have asked how they could help so here is a way. This GoFundMe account has been opened solely for the intentions to pay living expenses. Maybe in the future we can even start to imagine planning for the medical bills, but right now our main concern is to help provide for a family whose main provider is injured.

Currently, our dad is in SICU. He had damage to his heart, lung, and spine. He initially had surgery on his heart and lung, but were told at this time no surgery could be performed on his spine. He was just getting over pneumonia which in turn has caused him more strain on his lung.

As of right now, he is also paralyzed from about his diaphragm down. The paralysis has also caused more strain on his lungs making his oxygen levels low and unable to cough up anything that is causing him discomfort. The majority of his time spent at the hospital has been incubated with a chest tube to let the ventilator breathe for him because he simply is too weak to do so on his own. 
 
He also has had 3 suction drain tubes coming out of his lung, but thankfully they will be changing them to wet seal soon because his lungs are starting to clear up.

We pray the paralysis is temporary due to the swelling around the spine. 

Any donations would be highly appreciated and we'd be forever grateful because at the time being our mother is spending her days with our father at the hospital. Soon will have no type of income. The money will be used to pay for living expenses for the next month while we expect him to be in the hospital.

This means the world to us to help our mother not worry about expenses because we know she has a billion worries as it is. 

If you cannot donate, please just pray for our father. He has a wife of 23 years and three daughters that pray for him every day to get better, but we would appreciate any support given. 


All we want for Christmas is our daddy to be okay.
