Hi, my name is Ryan Lughermo and I am asking for help for a temporary situation. (BTW, that's me in the picture, but I could only wish to own that truck behind me.)

In October 2023 I had been hospitalized due to a bad infection on my right foot. I am already a left foot amputee, and the hospital staff and doctors worked hard to save the right one too. The surgery called debridement carved out a silver dollar size hole in my right foot, about 1 inch deep.

Because of the infection also spreading into my bloodstream means now along with the wound care treatment and keeping off the foot as much as possible, I am also now on IV antibiotics for the next 6-8 weeks at three times a day. And restricted to staying home for at least the same amount of time. except for necessary medical appointment trips. Trying to do everything to comply with doctor's orders so that it won't result in amputation.

Once that the foot's healed up and off the IV antibiotics, my next problem is getting surgery treatment for a bad tear in my right shoulder rotator cuff area. That should also take a little time to heal, as this is something I have been contending with since late August 2023.

With the next three months off due to all of the above, I cannot go back to work of any kind. And bills don't stop because of all of this. The amount of the fundraiser is the bare minimum necessary expenses such as rent, insurance, internet (basic), phone, and at least one tank of fuel to get to necessary medical appointments. All in total approximately $400 per month times 3 months.

Once I am cleared to go back to work, i will do whatever I can to "pay it forward" to help others like I normally try to do. Instead of being the "helper" type as I strive to be, this time I need help.

Thanks in advance to all that help me in this situation. I normally am one not to ask for help, but considering the circumstances, I don't have any choice but to ask for help.

Thanks in advance,
Ryan
