Sean Renet can use our love right now.

Update on Sean. Please help if you can...

The technical news (it's not great):

Sean's doctor has decided on the best course of action for his surgery. First, they'll block off the blood vessels (embolization) to reduce blood flow to the problem area. Then, he'll have brain surgery to remove the abnormal blood vessel formation (AVM). This involves removing a part of the back of his skull to access the AVM. The surgeon will gently move aside brain tissue to reach the AVM, which is located near the center of his brain in the cerebellum, a part of the central nervous system. Before the surgery, he'll need a special CT scan to help guide the process.

The real world news (also, not great):

Sean's brain surgery is scheduled for July 10th and while the $7000+ raised when we launched this fundraiser has been helpful, but it's nowhere enough at this point. The property management company for the apartment he and Amy live in is getting ready to evict them. They have a scheduled a court date for June 24th and SDI (disability) is delayed due to paperwork and won't help right now. Sean and Amy not only owe back rent but they need a chunk to get into a new place after the surgery is over and he's on the mend.

With that, we really need to hit the $25,000 goal of this fundraiser, if not more. If you have anything to give and can help by sharing this gofundme to your network or other people who know Sean and Amy it would be so helpful.

Thanks for all your continued support. Sean and Amy love each and every one of you.

Hi, if you know Sean you know he's a kind, selfless, hardworking super human, but today he needs our help. Sean suffered a serious stroke earlier this week. To be more exact, it was a "non-traumatic cerebellum stroke." And as far as I can explain, this means there was bleeding above his brain stem in the cerebellum, which is the central nervous system. He was sent home after a few days but was back in the ER for a bit today before being sent home again. The after-effects are impeding his vision and doing a number on his blood pressure. Sean sits at a computer every day for work, writing code or sharing memes with all of us, both of which are difficult to do when your eyes and your brain aren't functioning at the warped speed it's used to. While Sean has health insurance right now, this could take months to recover from, and he and his amazing wife Amy could use some help covering day to day living expenses that still need their attention (and money). If you know Sean, you know he would do it for you. If we all give a little, it'll surely add up to a lot. Let's show Sean and Amy some love to get them through everything they are going through right now.
