help with Jon's recovery and rehab
Donation protected
I am a 55 year old bilateral amputee needing s little financial assistance. I have two issues I am trying to resolve that I could use your help with.
i lost my right leg in May of 2015 due to lack of blood flow from a hereditary blood disorder. Then in June of 2016 I lost my left leg due to the same disorder.
Since June 2016 i have not been able to get into either bathroom in my house because it is an older house and the doorways are only 24' wide on both bathrooms.
this has brought about the situation that I must use a portable commode to use the bathroom and my wife gives me sponge baths because I have no access to a shower or bath tub.
I have not had a real shower since July of 2016 while I was still in the hospital.
Second issue: I have been fitted for a prosthetic leg on the left and the right to follow. I do have insurance currently but my inability to work has limited our income and with the first of the year my deductible has reset and now must pay 20% of the prosthetics. My part for just the left leg is about $3,700 of which I need $1500 to get the leg that they have built for me.
If you could help me get my legs and the bathroom door widened so I can start living like a real human being again and being productive again I would be so blessed.
