Help for Greg & Sherry Allen

Donation protected
On November 12th, my dad woke up with a terrible headache. He insisted it was just a migraine from his neck, but eventually the pain became unbearable. My Mom convinced him to go to the ER, and when she got him up and tried helping him walk, he collapsed. Luckily the squad got there fast and took him to Ashland, where we were told things didn't look good. He had extensive bleeding throughout his brain and would need life flighted to Cleveland.

Once he made it to Cleveland, we discovered the issue was caused by 2 brain aneurysms that ruptured. He is currently sedated and on a ventilator at the neuroscience intensive care unit. They are waiting for results and hope to get a bolt in his head to drain as much fluid as they can to release some pressure. He will have brain surgery to clamp off the aneurysm and remove a portion of his skull tomorrow. The aneurysm rupturing caused subarrachnoid hemorrhaging so they are hoping to get everything under control, get him stable, and prevent anymore issues.

If all goes well during surgery, he will remain in the intensive care unit for at least 2 weeks. The risk of having a stroke is high and he will need monitored. My Mom plans to be by his side over the next couple weeks, which means she will be missing work. Obviously my Dad will be missing work as well and has a long road to recovery if everything goes well.

Any donations will go towards my Mom's hotel stays over the next several weeks so she can be nearby, gas for traveling back and forth, and food expenses while away from home. Money will also be used to cover missed wages for her and my Dad. This will allow them to have one less thing to worry about since their is enough on their plate without worrying about how their bills will be covered while they're off work. Anything helps and is greatly appreciated. Should they be lucky enough to have anything left over, money will be used to go towards medical bills for the ambulance, life flight, surgery, hospital stay, etc. Every little bit will help so they can focus on what matters most right now.

Please pray for healing, pray that surgery goes well, pray that their is no brain damage, and that healing is smooth and there are no strokes within the next few weeks.

Thank you to anyone who can help whether it's monetary or prayers. We appreciate and love you all.
