Nelly's Emergency Brain Surgery

On Tuesday, June 7, 2016, my wife, Nelly Meeks, the beautiful young lady you see in the picture, went to see her neurologist. That's when she received the bad news that she would have to have an emergency brain surgery to remove a tumor sitting on her brain.

The neurologist explained that it has grown to a size that is no longer safe and has to be removed immediately. It seems as if everything just happened at once.

On June 1st, we discovered that we had to move from where we are currently living. On March 19th of 2015, I lost my job as a conductor on the railroad. I've only been able to earn half of what I use to make so bills got behind and somethings we just had to let go. I started doing Uber and was making decent money while building a couple of businesses. Things were really starting to look good then my truck broke down on me just last Saturday and cost too much for me to get repaired, so now I cannot Uber.

We have to find a way to get our daughters to Kenya to stay with their grandparents for a while because it could take 3 to 6 months for my wife to recover. The doctor said she would have to be cared for like a baby for the first couple of months. My truck has already been repo once and is on the verge of repo again. 

So this diagnosis is very untimely and we just do not have enough money for all of this.

We asking for your help. Anything that you are able to give will be much appreciated. Even if it's nothing more than sharing our story and helping it go viral.

I know money is tight for the majority of us, so whatever you are able to give will be greatly appreciated. 

Those who know me know that I don't ask for anything unless I absolutely need it. And we really need your help.

Hopefully we can raised the money in time enough for my wife to take our kids to Kenya so she can see her family before the brain surgery on the 29th of this month because you never know when it's your last. And going under the nife is never a good thing, but I have faith that everything will be ok.

To all prayer warriors out there, I'm asking that you keep our family in your prayers as we embarked on the journey ahead.

God Bless You & Thank You In Advance For Your Efforts!
