Petey's Spinal Surgery Fund

I was laid off work on October 14th.  While trying to open my own new business, 2 weeks later I contracted a spinal infection.  This was extremely painful and was mis-diagnosed for almost 3 months.  This left me barely able to walk or leave the couch.  In January I was referred to a surgeon who quickly diagnosed and was going to perform surgery.  If I didn't have surgery, I could have ended up paralyzed or possible death.  The surgeon scheduled a team of surgeons to perform this delicate surgery. They had to go through my side, deflate a lung, remove a rib,  partial rib and 2 vertebrae.  They said I will make a full recovery but this will take a very long time.  My expected recovery time is 6-12 months and I will not be able to work the majority of this time.  Please help support my family and I during this long road to recovery.  Thank you for everything!
