Help KC KS Firefighter get back on his feet.
Donation protected
Last Friday my brother, Eron, who is a KC, KS firefighter (19-year veteran) fell 30' through a painted-over skylight of a roof and landed on the concrete while helping the KCPD investigate an earlier accident.
As you can imagine, he has extensive injuries. Both arms are broken and dislocated, his right leg from below his knee to his ankle is shattered, a broken pelvis, broken vertebrae, and a broken cheekbone! He's had 2 surgeries so far (with many more to come) on his leg and arms and a screw put in place to fix his pelvis. It will be an incredibly long and difficult road to recovery.
He and his wife, Sarah, and their 2 kids, Savannah and Eli, need all the prayers they can. But, more importantly, they are going to need help with some of the incidentals: Sarah taking unpaid leave from work, they will need to do modifications to the house - 2 broken legs and stairs do not mix, gas back and forth every day, medical equipment, mortgage and bills, etc.
Thank you so very much, everyone! ❤ This is Eron mere hours after many hours in surgery! Always a smile! ❤
