I don’t know where to start as this is quite frankly embarrassing and humbling. On Tuesday, December third, while working, I suffered a heart attack. As anyone that knows, I’m self-employed with a one-man heating and air company. My clients know I don’t charge as much as other companies as I’ve always tried to keep pricing fair (I don’t have to make millions a year off the backs of hard-working people). I work off referrals, often helping out families who can’t afford the big companies' prices.
Long story short, I’m not going to be able to get fully back to work till probably April, according to my doctor, and March, April, and May are the slowest parts of the whole year for me. I quite frankly have no possible way of making it that long without income. I owe about $6,500 in medical bills as part of my insurance co-pay. The Brilinta they prescribed with insurance is $400 a month plus some others, plus the outrageous cost of home bills we all suffer from. I have no savings as this year I’ve had to drain all I had to help some family members in need. I don’t have credit cards (hated them my whole life) or a way to get a loan to make it through this.
I was recommended to do this. Trust me, if there was any other possible freaking way than to further humble myself, I wouldn’t put my personal life out there. My basic bills are roughly $6,000 a month with work van payments, home, insurance, utilities, food, etc.
If you really know me or anyone who knows me, they would tell you I go out of my way to help my family, friends, and friends of friends, and complete strangers that God puts in front of me as much as I possibly can. I try my hardest to be a good man.
I humbly ask that if you have something you could donate to help me out, I would be eternally grateful. This has been a humbling experience. I’m usually a battleship that nothing slows me down, but I’m wrecked just walking around my house. I have a second heart surgery on December 7th, and after a few weeks of healing, I start 3 months of rehab, 3 days a week. To be honest, any other time I would ignore rehab and doctors' advice and sneak back to work as quickly as possible, but this has been different. I just don’t have the strength to overcome my heart not working right.
It Suggest I start with a goal of $8,000 but in reality it will take way more. Theres an option if you donate to share your experience with me I invite you to do so.
Thank You, Scott
