Medical (Family) Expenses

Donation protected


This is our son Gideon, he was born on February 25, 2014. Without the right artery to his heart. He underwent open heart surgery on February 28, 2014. Things looked like they were improving and he would be home in a week or so. However we learned today that, he will have to undergo his second open heart surgery next week, due to an infection in the heart & valve, with a minimum hospitalization in Sick Kids, Toronto Ontario. For at least 7 weeks following. My Wife and I have exhausted our savings and are almost at our financial end. My wife and daughter need to remain in Toronto, Ontario so that she can express her breast milk for him. We're asking for money for food for my wife and daughter, accomodation, & anything else they need, while in Toronto. We currently live in Burford, Ontario which is aproximately 150kms away. I am currently continuing to work to pay our current debt commitment and bills, afford the gas to drive back and forth to visit. Any finacial help we recieve that we do not directly need, we will make a charitable gift back to either Sick Kids hospital, or Ronald McDonald House, Toronto to help fund another family's expenses.
