PenDell With His Medical Recovery

Donation protected
Hey there folks,

PenDell and Melanie have over the years, become some of our dearest friends. Both amazing people on their own and an incredible couple together.

Like many of us, current medical insurance options just don't cover near enough of the costs involved if something tragic happens. Added to that fact is that both Melanie and PenDell are self-employed. Basically all income has stopped during this tragic period . . . a double hit.

Here is what Melanie posted about the situation on Facebook.

"For the last three weeks, I have been holding vigil with my beloved husband, PenDell <3 Three weeks ago, I took him to the emergency room with slurred speech and mental confusion. He was diagnosed with a stroke. However, through many challenging symptoms and events over the last two weeks, it has been re-diagnosed as viral meningitis.

I know that we have a road ahead that is completely unpredictable and unknown. I am strong in faith that he will heal and restore - he has been filled with grace, gratitude, and determination through this.

The infection is still active in his brain. He has a hard time expressing himself in words... how ironic! He still experiences confusion and gets disoriented.

It seemed time to reach out so that all who know and love PenDell can hold him in your loving care."

I have asked Melanie's permision to start this campaign on their behalf. The money will go to medical expenses, recovery expenses and living expenses.

I am asking that if either one of these amazing people have touched your life, in even just a fraction of how much they have touched ours, that you help me in both spreading the message and giving of your hearts and pocketbooks to one of the most worthy causes I am aware of, community members in need.

And if you haven't had the privilege of meeting either of these people, please don't let that stop you. Your community is reaching out for help, anything you can do to help is so greatly appreciated.

About me: Both my wife and I have been friends with the PenDell's for a number of years now. PenDell and I often have coffee (or tea) together on a weekly basis, Melanie and Vivian often see each other weekly, and the four of us spend time together generally weekly as well. PenDell is like a family member to both of us . . .  the kind you actually like to spend time with. :-) My time on this project is supported by https://buy-kratom.us.

I started this campaign because I dearly love these two people and they need help. 100% of the money is going to the Pittman family and I am not able to withdraw any of it myself. Malanie has been added to the account as the only person able to withdraw.
