Help Us Support Rick Boyce after Neurosurgery

Donation protected
Update on 4/24: Have been Facetiming Rick and he could still use your prayers. Today they are looking at removing his tube on the top of his head to see if the fluid build up drains on its own. If it does not, they will need to re-open his skull and put a tube all the down to his stomach for drainage and start the entire healing process over again. Praying he doesn't need to go through all that pain again! I have been approached by many people asking to help out Rick Boyce and his Family after his Surgery, so we thought the best way for people to help out with donating money is to start up a GoFundMe page for him.  

On Thursday morning April 16th, Rick passed out on the bathroom floor, was unresponsive, couldn't talk or move his legs. He was rushed to Hardin Memorial Hospital where April couldn't even go back with him due to COVID-19. They found he had a brain bleed and they MedEvac Flighted him over to UofL Hospital for Neurosurgery.  They found he had a ruptured brain aneurism, so they put a stint in his head to relieve some pressure.  The next morning they did an extensive 9 hour surgery where they opened up his skull and went into his brain to place clips to stop the bleeding.  His surgery had to be postponed a bit as they found out he had a heart attack the morning before and gave him medicine to slow down his heart rate. 

Rick is young still and very strong. Through the Grace of God, he came through the surgery fine and it's going to be a long road of recovery. 

Those that know Rick & April, know they would give you the shirts off their backs, would do anything for their friends and family and are involved in their community here in Central Kentucky.  They need our help NOW!

They own a successful Roofing Business (Above & Beyond Roofing) and April is going to do her best to keep the business going while Rick is recovering.  She is a strong woman, and doesn't like to ask for help, but we all know during times like this, unexpected expenses can occur. 
Thank you for your kind and generous donations.
