Darien White's ICU Bill and After-Care
Donation protected
You know Darien as the (very tall) bartender from Goodfellas, a former ice cream scooper from Crank & Boom, a smiling face that frequents Emo Nights at The Burl, or a loyal and kindhearted friend.
Currently, Darien is facing ever-mounting medical bills due to an extended stay in the ICU from a severe episode of diabetic ketoacidosis. Darien did not know before this week that he is a Type 1 Diabetic. His pancreas has stopped creating insulin, and he will be dependent on insulin injections for the rest of his life, several times a day. He is still in the ICU.
If you can donate anything to help him face the onslaught of medical bills rapidly coming his way, it would be much appreciated. We hope to purchase him an insulin pump, a CGM (continuous glucose monitor), and help him replace lost wages from his extended hospital stay. If you're unable to donate, please share! Just 500 people donating $20 would help reach the goal. Every little bit helps!
