My husband Steven had a widow-maker heart attack

Hello everyone, I'm new to all this, so I didn't know how much to set the goal too. but I've had a few family and friends asks me to do this.

My name is Danielle McCumbers-Jones 40yrs old and my husband is Steven Edward Jones jr 40yrs old, we have 2 beautiful children, Eli 11yrs old and Piper who is 5yrs old.

Around the end of July being of August Steven had found out that he had a diabetic ulcer on the bottom of his foot, his a1c was 11.9 which means his sugar was running in the 500-600 for we don't know how long and his BP was running pretty high, the highest I remember 202/109, yes that's high, so he started taking better care of his self and start taking his medication like he should. He started trying to get his foot to heal and I was changing his bandage every day and he was sent to the wound clinic.

9-5-2022 my husband was getting ready for bed and he said Danielle I'm not feeling good, both of our kids had the rhino virus that week, so we thought he was getting it, (he didn't have no symptoms other the short of breath which can occur with a respiratory infection) so he laid down and we went to sleep. 9-6-2022 he got up and headed to work at gomart like he always does, on the way to gomart he still wasn't feeling good, He got to gomart and told his manager I'm not feeling well and I can't caught my breath, so Steven told his manager I'm going to the er to get a breathing treatment and I'll be back, so his manager told him to go to the er, when he got to the er, they started running test and within 3 hrs they shipped him from Spencer W.va to Charleston W.va. his heart enzyme was crazy high and his ekg was abnormal. He got to Charleston memorial hospital in Kanawha city, they started running a bunch of test on Steven and all the test was coming back that something wasnt right with Steven heart ❤, then on Friday 9-9-2022 they did a heart cath on him and that's when they found out the main value of his heart was blocked 100% he had a willow-maker heart attack and the Dr put 3 stents in his heart and had to stop because his heart rate and BP started dropping, then on Monday 9-12-2022 the Dr had to go back in with another heart cath to put 2 more stents but the Dr had to stop because his heart was so damaged and weak, his BP and heart rate started to dropped again. While he was dealing with all this with he heart ❤ he was also dealing with a bad infection in his foot and toes from the diabetic ulcer. They ran test and more test and found out the diabetic ulcer was in his pinky toe and the toe beside the pinky toe and it was so bad that the diabetic ulcer is in the bones of those two toes. The foot Dr was going to amputate those two toes because its really bad and if they don't amputate those toes he will lose his foot. But the heart ❤ Dr doesn't want to right now because Steven heart is so weak and damaged. Plus he has to go back in a week or so for another week or so stay in the hospital to do another heart cath on him because he still has blockages in his heart. So the foot Dr said he would put Steven on strong antibiotics for 30 days and that will give his heart about 2 weeks to get stronger after having a widow-maker heart attack and round 7 stents, because by then he will have 2 more stents or maybe more depends on how many blockages he still has, but it's going to be a dangerous surgery no matter what because of his heart ❤ and the medication he is on for his heart ❤. Steven has a very long road to recovery.

I've had a few friends and family suggest me to start a gofundme since Steven is not going to be able to work for awhile and he is our main income. I wasn't sure how much to set the goal too because we don't know how long he will be out of work for. Yes we have medical insurance not sure how much they will pay, ( we got the first bill Saturday after insurance paid what they was paying it was $548) he has talk to a case worker from the hospital, and I have went to the dhhr, just waiting to hear from them. We still have house whole bills and gas for trips to the Dr's. Just this week alone, he has 3 Dr appointment. I'm trying to help, I'm making a group to sell what we don't need around the house. I don't like asking for help but at this point I really have done everything I can think of for help even though it's hard for us to asks, we have two kids we have to take care of.. so any thing will be greatly appreciated.

Thank you and God bless everyone. Please continue keeping Steven and our family in your prayers ❤ as Steven has a very long road to recovery ahead of him.

I will add a picture of Steven foot, it's a picture from August, I don't have new ones because the foot Dr has it bandage very well.
