Please help Jon keep his left eye. Surgery 1 of 3

Donation protected
My name is Jon, and my heart overflows with love for my three beautiful children. They are the center of my universe, my reason for living, and I yearn to be the unwavering pillar of strength they deserve. However, life has taken an unexpected turn, plunging me into a harrowing abyss of health issues that threaten to shatter my world. This is the story of my journey through pain, despair, and the unwavering hope that lights the way towards recovery and restoration.

Today is an incredibly tough day. My depression is suffocating me, and I feel like I'm drowning in darkness. It's as if the weight of the world is crushing down on me, and I can't see a glimmer of hope.

My left eye won't stop spasming, and the pain in my head feels like a never-ending storm raging inside. I'm so tired of this constant migraine that gnaws at my sanity. It's worse than anything I've ever endured before, and I feel utterly helpless.

At Murphys gas station, I had another terrible fall. I couldn't even get up on my own because my health is failing me. My blood pressure is going haywire, and it's terrifying to experience such instability.

I want to be able to return to work, but my health issues have robbed me of that ability. Everything started when I stepped out of the car, my body betrayed me when my blood pressure dropped to a severely low level and I fell, a stick piercing my eye socket. The pain was excruciating and without thinking about it I pulled it from my head and my life spiraled into chaos.

I'm facing multiple surgeries now, and the fear is overwhelming. The mounting medical bills are suffocating me, and I can't bear the burden alone. The thought of having to undergo so many procedures is terrifying, and I'm scared of what the future holds.

To make matters worse, I've been told that my eye is now infected with three or more types of bacteria. The fear of losing my sight is unbearable. I need aggressive treatment to save what little I have left, but it's financially draining.

My health has robbed me of my job, my livelihood, and my sense of independence. I'm drowning in despair, and the world feels so cruel. I applied for disability, hoping for a lifeline, but it's yet to come through.

My insurance covers only half of the overwhelming medical expenses, leaving me drowning in debt. I'm desperately reaching out for help because I can't do this alone. The OU Health Science Center and the Dean McGee Eye Institute hold the key to my recovery, but I fear they might slip away from my grasp due to financial constraints.

Please, if you can find it in your heart to help, I will forever be indebted to your kindness. Your support could change everything for me and my family, and it would mean the world to us. I'm clinging to hope amidst this storm of despair, praying for a glimmer of light. Thank you for listening and thank you for any help you can offer.
