John Tristao Surgery$, Lets Help !!
Donation protected
Hi we are Ron and Dennis Brooks and we are asking for your help. This fund raiser is for our dear friends John and Beth Tristao. John had a tear in his aortic valve from the top of his heart all the way into the kidneys. John also had an aneurysm in the valve, it is called an aortic aneurysm dissection, meaning he tore the inside of the valve and it was bleeding out. John had to go through several surgeries to repair this damage and save his life. They surgically placed a Teflon coated mesh around the entire valve to stabilize him and save his life.
John has been a musician his whole life. He has played in many well-known Bay Area bands including People who had a top hit "I Love You" in the 60's , Daddy-O, and Bongo and Guy. After being a lifelong Bay Area resident, John moved to Washington State where he lives with his wife Beth and son Ty. John is now the singer and rhythm guitar for the hugely popular Creedence Clearwater Revisited where he performs with original CCR members Doug Clifford and Stu Cook. John’s local band, (Johnny Bulldog), playing with Kevin Johnson and Larry Masson have always supported the communities performing benefit concerts for many charities and individuals that were in need.
John has not been able to work for over 4 months, and has had no income since becoming ill. Unfortunately, all the bills that go along with supporting his family and maintaining his home need to be paid every month. These surgeries and his ongoing medical care were only partially covered by the insurance company and the portion of the cost that are still owed are astronomical. John and Beth have to pay the portion of the hospital and medical bills that aren't covered by insurance and to make house payments and pay living expenses.
John, Beth and their son Ty desperately need our help. John and Beth have always been there for their friends and John has used his amazing musical talent to benefit countless community fundraising efforts. We are asking you to please be as generous as you can to help John and Beth in their time of need.
It would mean so much to John and Beth if we could help them with this burden. If you are a friend of John or Beth, a friend of Ron or Dennis or if you have ever enjoyed John's phenomenal musical talent, please consider making whatever size donation you can afford. John and Beth have helped so many others; please take the time to help them.
Finally, to maximize the chances for reaching our goals, please forward this to your friends and neighbors and please keep John and Beth in your thoughts and prayers.
