Michael Taulbee Funeral Expenses

My name is Hailey. This go fund me is for my mom and dad. On Wednesday November 29th 2023 my dad Michael had a heart attack while driving his semi truck in West Virginia. He was taken to WVU wheeling where they determined he was needing extensive life support, life support that they were not able to provide. When this was determined he was care flighted to Morgantown WVU hospital (J.W. Ruby Memorial). Here he was placed in Cardio Vascular ICU where he has been since 3am Thursday morning. The doctors are optimistic with his condition but it is a scary situation. He is currently on a ventilator, balloon pump and Ecmo machine. These machines are the highest level of life support a person can be on. He also has been diagnosed with RSV which is why they are wanting to keep him on the ventilator. His heart is not strong enough to breathe like he needs to because it is very sick.

My mom is commuting back and forth from Ohio to WV when she can. She currently has a room at the Rosenbaum Family house on the WVU campus. But this is not free. Because she is not able to work, I wanted to create this go fund me to help her get through to be able to eat, pay for room, and a cushion for her bills.

They are appreciative for anything and everything everyone can do for them. Friendly words or a few dollars here and there. I appreciate it because unfortunately my sister and I are not able to stay full time with her to help.
