Help Blue Thunder Mike, medical bills
Donation protected
Some of you know Mike from his years of dedication to the Seahawks Blue Thunder drumline. Others may know him from seeing him around West Seattle and in the WS blog promoting the opening of his own sports bar, RedlineWS, this past January.
Blue Thunder Mike could really use your help. Mike is suffering from a debilitating illness that has attacked his nervous system, making tasks as simple as walking impossible. As Mike's dreams of opening the RedlineWS in his beloved home town of West Seattle finally came to life, so did his incapacitating illness. This has directly affected his ability to bring his vision of a much needed sports bar and restaurant to West Seattle the way he had dreamed it should have been. As bar construction was underway, Mike's ailment really began to take its toll on his everyday life. The vision’s true goals were quickly disappearing as finances were crippled by mounting bills, but he still managed to get the restaurant open for business.
Obviously Mike has not been able manage or operate the restaurant he worked so hard to open. Due to mounting bills accrued by his sickness and the inability to manage and run RedlineWS, he is now at risk of losing everything, including his home. At this time Mike's medical insurance is exhausted, medical bills are mounting and further tests to diagnose his ailment have been cancelled due to lack of funds.
What we are asking from Mike’s friends and fellow West Seattleites is to visit the bar and give Mike your support! Give the bar a chance knowing the obstacles Mike faced to open it and understand that it is still truly a work in progress. If you like the place and want to donate to Mike in his time of need he would be grateful for your generosity. You would literally be helping his dreams stay alive during this uncertain time.
All funds raised will go to fund Mike’s on going medical bills, housing, and sustained growth of this newly founded West Seattle sports bar RedlineWS.
Thank you all for your positivity and support! Here’s to a speedy recovery for Mike!
Sincerely,
Mike's friends.
