DON BAUER'S BENEFIT FUNDRAISER HAS BEEN POSTPONED........BECAUSE OF WHAT IS
HAPPENING WITH ALL THE CLOSINGS WITH THE CORONAVIRUS......NO NEW DATE HAS
BEEN SET YET ....WHEN A NEW DATE IS DECIDED...WE WILL POST IT HERE...SPREAD THE WORD.
"Everyone...Please...Wish "Don" a Happy Birthday, on Sunday, March 15th!"
Early summer 2019, Don Bauer experienced vision problems... and on October 18, 2019 on his way to Aberdeen to visit Family. . . . North of Redfield, Don glanced at a Highway Patrol that had a vehice pulled over...... looking up Don seen taillights and rear-ended a pickup........pushing both vehicles into the ditch...Don was transported to Redfield...then Avera in Sioux Falls... resulting in emergency surgery for completely shattered broken Pelvis. Don was released from the hospital on Oct. 23 , even with therapy and 2 months recovery......the Pelvis bone was refractured, & Don is currently healing & waiting for March 9th appointment to evaluate for total hip replacement.
(UPDATE) Don went to his March 9th appointment ....his Doctor evaluated and advised to wait one more month for the hip to heal ..before attempting a total hip replacement.
With "no medical" insurance, in 2019, when the accident" happened.....Don accumulated many medical bills that need to be paid.
Then in 2020, Don acquired Medical insurance, "hopefully for the current bills," .....and had Laser eye surgery on Feb 20th, and future March 20 appointment for eye injections needed to correct his vision, with ongoing eye injections as needed, for life.
There is also A Benefit Fundraiser scheduled at a later date ...... with lunch served, silent & live auctions for donated guns and numerous items, at Wieman Land & Auction, 44628 SD Hwy #44, Marion SD 57043. For more information call Mike & Barb Bauer...or Benton Visser.
It would be great to see a big turn out to show Don our love and support!
This fundraiser will be successful if everyone who reads this.............tells and spreads the story of Don!
