Team up For Tanner Bachman
Donation protected
Hello friends, family, and everyone else. I am setting this GoFundMe for a great friend of mine who is going through hell right now. He is retired Deputy Sheriff and he and his family are just all around great people. Unfortunately, tragedy struck this wonderful family a few days ago. Now their teenage son is at Childrens Hospital fighting the hardest battle of all. To live. Below is his story. Please help this family as the bills are continuing to skyrocket. No one should fight alone. God Bless you all.
On Tuesday May 2 around 530pm, Tanner was home alone and called 911. When police showed up, Tanner was unresponsive and having a seizure. Medics transported him to Riverside Hospital. That was when we learned he had a significant brain bleed. The ER decided it would be best if he was transported to Children's hospital. He was treated as a level 1 trauma patient and many doctors were waiting for him. After another scan, they diagnosed him with an AVM rupture. Basically, a rupture in his blood vessels. They never heard of someone being able to call 911 after this, so God definitely was with him then . Soon at children's, he had a procedure to place a drain in his brain. For the last 2 day, he has been very sedated to give his brain a rest to recover. Every 4 hours, neurology comes in to wake him up. We are slowly seeing signs especially on his left side. He really squeezed John's hand and did not want to let go. Last night, he had to get a bigger port placed in. This is for sodium to increase his blood pressure. He had low blood pressure and they want more blood flowing through his brain . After the procedure, he was somewhat agitated. The attending doctor suggested playing music for him . On her own cellphone, she found 2cellos and let his listen to it. This phone stayed by his ear for about an hour and he really calmed down . We are on our third day now and he is stable. We are just giving him time for his brain to heal. I will continue to update. Please pray for Tanner and send him positive thoughts. That is what he needs now more than anything.
