Emergency Heart & Kidney Bills
Donation protected
On the evening of Tuesday, July 29th, Robert Bennett was working late at night, rushing to complete tasks and deadlines that needed to be done by the next day. This was not an uncommon thing, and instead happened pretty frequently in order to insure the business remained up and running. However, what was to happen was less than expected. He would later be carted away by an ambulance to a nearby hospital after nearly losing consciousness relating to extreme heart palpitations.
Several short hours later, he would be discharged from that hospital, only to return within another hour due to a skyrocketing pulse, blood pressure, and further heart palpitations. Luckily, it never resulted in a heart attack or worse. On the second visit, doctor's took the situation much more seriously and did extensive checks. During blood tests, they discovered that not only was his heart having issues, but that an enzyme in his blood (CPK) was over 13 times the safe limit, and he was desperately close to entering renal failure. After 40 hours of close monitoring and care, he was stabilized.
Now released and very slowly recovering from Rhabdomyolysis, Robert and his young wife Alexandra are asking for any donations and help that you might be able to offer. He has been off of work already for two weeks, with possibly more to come. Robert was the breadwinner of his home, working constantly to provide for his household, and was still dealing with bills and financial strife from having gotten married only a month before to his high school sweetheart.
The goal provided is a guess at best, as none of the bills have come in yet (which very well may be even more). However, with an ambulance ride and two hospital stays under his belt, there is little he can do but wait in terror for them to come as he stares at an already drained bank account.
We are asking for absolutely any donations that you are willing to provide. At this point, anything helps. I thank you for any kindness that you are willing to show and any generosity that you might find within your heart to help. Thank you.
