Matt Elmore medical relief fund
Donation protected
Matt has been fighting an infection for several weeks. His right arm had 2 lymph nodes that swell up to the size of baseballs and were bright red. He was getting better on atibiotics until 4 days ago. He was very confused and taken to the ER. While in the Hospital, he has had a massive siezure that has left him unresponsive for the past couple of days. The doctor believes he has a bacteria called Bartonella henselae (cat scratch fever).
He is starting to come to very slowly recognizing family and friends, but he has a long road ahead and is not out of the woods yet. He is still in the hospitol on the ICU floor at this time in no shape to be sent home for at least a couple more days. The doctor believes it may take up to 2 months of recovery for him to get back to normal. Matt is the hardest working person i know, and one of the nicest people who will give you the shirt off his back and a room to stay. Him and his wife are going to need all of the help they can get. The goal is to raise at least $3000 by the time the hospital bills start to come by in a couple of months. If all you can give is $10 that would be appreciated. Thank You.
