PLEASE HELP PASTOR AUSTIN WARNER, JR.

Hi, my name is Austin Warner, Jr.

I am a husband, father and grandfather. I have had the privilege of making Bermuda my forever home for over forty years, during which time it was my pleasure to be employed in Residential Services, King Edward Memorial Hospital (Medical Social Worker), Guidance Counseling, Addictive Services, Turning Point, Benedict Associates (EAP), Council Partners Charitable Trust. The employment opportunities have provided me with an indescribable sense of joy, especially as I have witnessed countless clients and students become awesome leaders across the Island.

Unfortunately, my current situation is a challenging one both physically, mentally and spiritually. In the past ten years I have been hospitalized over ten times, had seven surgeries, and suffered a close call with sepsis which would have killed me. I have been unable to maintain gainful employment, especially since my recent diagnoses of cardiomyopathy and pulmonary fibroses have left me with minimal walking range and challenged breathing. Prescription medications fill my nightstand, only minimizing symptoms and at times creating additional issues.

I have an opportunity to attend a wholistic healthcare treatment facility (Uchee Pines Institute) that has an outstanding reputation for healing mind, body and spirit with extraordinary outcomes. Insurance companies do not recognize their modes of treatment, hence, I am asking friends to financially help me as best you can.

My financial goal is $7,000, and as I mentioned earlier, your kind support would be greatly appreciated.

Thanking you in advance,

Austin
