Help with putting my dad to rest
Donation protected
Hi everyone my name is Samantha Sillman my dad Christopher Jelinek went into liver failure Saturday night. Within 6 hours of being at the hospital all his organs began shutting down, he is 100% on the ventilator starting bleeding internally. They have gave him over 3 units of blood 4 units of plasma tried a procedure to stop the internal bleeding with no success. The doctors informed me that he is maxed out on 3 blood pressure meds and they are still having trouble keeping his blood pressure high enough to live. We were hoping for a miracle but the doctor said no more can be done and we need to let him go peacefully, with that being said we will be taking him off the ventilator tomorrow morning to let him go peacefully.
This is so devastating, I never ask for help but with the holidays how unexpected this was and my dad had absolutely no income at this point. I would appreciate anything anyone can do even if it's just a prayer. I am going to get him cremated and I need to pay for transport this all adds up fast.
Update: my dad passed away peacefully last night on Xmas night.
