Let's support Ricki Hauser heal
Donation protected
Greetings dear community,
Last Friday, May 12th, Rick checked into the emergency room with chest pain. While in the ER, a nurse named ERIN caught that he was moving into cardiac arrest. She acted quickly and brought in a team of people that were able to stabilize him before transferring him to Cedar Sinai Hospital. At Cedar Sinai, the medical team intervened and performed an angiogram. Rick had a procedure done where the medical team placed 4 stents into his arteries to keep the blood flowing to his heart.
Rick was released from the hospital on Sunday and is now resting and in recovery.
He has a regimen of medications, diet and exercise that he will be following. He will continue to be monitored by a cardiologist.
Rick has a recovery journey ahead of him and will need more assistance.
This is where we come in.
We are raising funds to help alleviate some financial pressure, unexpected medical bills, medical equipment, prescriptions, alternative therapy care, and daily living. It may be some time before Rick can return to his work in landscaping and metal sculpting, as it is labor-intensive.
So let us come together as the beautiful tribe that we are and help raise funds to support our brothers' healing journey.
