Fight for Life: Glenn Wilkerson

Donation protected
This GoFundMe campaign is being set up for our 47-year-old nephew, Glenn Wilkerson and his family.  Glenn is married and has three beautiful children.  They reside in Ladera Ranch, California.   Glenn is a gentle, loving, and compassionate man and has spent his entire life taking care of others.   Now it is time for us to take care of him. 

On February 25, 2020, Glenn received a small cut on his finger.  He cleaned it and resumed life as normal.  The next day, Glenn complained of not feeling well, so he visited an Online Physician who diagnosed him as having the flu.  This diagnosis was not surprising because his family had the flu the week before.  Two days later, Glenn felt that he was getting worse, so he went to an Urgent Care Facility.   They diagnosed him with Bronchitis and a severe case of the flu and sent him home.  That same night he began to experience numbness in his feet, so he decided to go the Emergency Room at Mission Hospital.   There Glenn was diagnosed with a serious infection from an unknown source and admitted to the ICU with total renal failure.    Glenn was talking that afternoon but by that evening he was on life support.  He remained on life support for days and was not expected to live.  However, our prayers were answered, and he survived.  He is still in the ICU and on dialysis.  There was some heart damage but we are praying that it will naturally repair itself.   It is also possible that there may be residual effects that will include some amputation.  Unfortunately, the medications administered to save his life caused damage to his extremities.  We are still praying about this because we know that God is the ultimate doctor and healer.

Glenn and his family will incur exorbitant medical costs and will still be faced with the responsibilities of paying for everyday living expenses, such as care for Glenn, rent, bills, food, etc.  There will be many months, if not years of rehabilitation for Glenn.  Therefore, he will need help.  ALL FUNDS COLLECTED WILL GO DIRECTLY TO GLENN AND HIS FAMILY TO PAY FOR OUT OF POCKET MEDICAL EXPENSES, REHABILITATION AND NECESSARY LIVING EXPENSES.  CONTRIBUTIONS CAN ALSO BE SENT VIA VENMO TO SHERIDAN@SHERIDAN-EADDY. 

Glenn and his family need assistance, so we are asking everyone who is able and wants to be part of his recovery to give whatever you can.  No amount is too small and will certainly be appreciated.  Even if you are unable to give, please pray for Glenn and his family.

 

Thank You
