Hi, I'm Andrew Dove's wife, Candace. Please take the time to read our story.

On Monday, July 19th I received a phone call that my husband, Andrew, had fallen out of a 25+ foot tree while at work. The EMS team was on scene and actively working on him. They decided to Bay Fight Andrew to Lee Memorial Hospital in Ft. Myers, FL. After x-rays and a CT scan they determined Andrew has a broken back and some abdominal bleeding. He is currently waiting for more testing.

We are extremely thankful and blessed to have Andrew still with us. Unfortunately, he has a 2 month recovery at minimum. This will be a very difficult time for us being Andrew is our only provider. I've been a stay at home mom for just at 4 years now. Andrew takes care of our bills so I can be home full-time with our 6 beautiful children, Cheyenne (10), Savannah (7), Wyatt(5), Olivia (4), Andy(3) and Elliot (3 weeks).

I can't stop thinking, how lucky we are to still have him. My heart dropped when I heard "Ma'am, your husband fell and there's an ambulance here." The thought of losing him scared the breath out of me. I thought, "How could I tell out children their dad passed?" Thankfully, I didn't have to.

Unlike myself, Andrew is sitting in the ICU, in pain, broken and scraped up. The only thing on his mind is our bills. How is he going to keep the water running, electric on, food on the table, ECT. for his family.

THIS MAN❤️ He's our rock!

Thank you for reading our story. Please, be grateful for your loved ones. Fight a little less and love a little harder.
