Medical bills for Hayward Romer

On March 18th, Dr. Hayward Romer, my father, a beloved dentist in Grand Bahama suffered a stroke, due to a blood clot which left him unable to walk without assistance and unable to use his right hand or speak clearly and fluently. He spent 2 weeks in Florida at a rehabilitation center with intensive physical, ooccupational and speech therapy.  His recovery had been progressing well until May 23rd when he was taken back to the hospital. Upon admittance it was determined that his platelet count was so low that he needed emergency  blood transfusions. He has now been diagnosed with Heparin-induced thrombocytopenia and needs to have an emergency procedure done in the US.
As many know our daddy is a selfless God fearing man, that has given to so many in his community on Grand Bahama, expecting nothing in return. While attempting to arrange rehabilitation we were shocked to learn that his insurance company would not cover his stroke or any medical bills associated with it. This includes Dr. Romer's rehabilitation which will be lengthy and challenging, and without insurance, it will all have to be paid out of pocket and now also include this procedure which can cost up to $80,000.
Those of you that know him and love him know just how amazing of a person he is. And even more what an amazing husband, father, brother and friend he is. Our goal is to raise $80,000 to aid with transport to Florida, medical bills in Florida, and other miscellaneous items. Unfortunately, such extensive  resources for stroke victims are not available in the Bahamas. We are all ready to get Doc back up and talking non stop!

We thank you in advance for your support, your love and most importantly your prayers.

Sincerely,
The Romer Family
