Buddy's Medical and Financial Fund

Donation protected
My name is Gary Prosser.  I am trying to raise as much money as possible for financial needs as well as hospital bills.  On October 7,2016 while looking at a balcony in order to fix some problems with it approximately 25 ft high, I slipped and was catapulted through missing spindles on the balcony.  After falling some 25 ft I broke every rib on my left side, ruptured my spleenic artery and suffered from internal bleeding; due to blood loss i had to recieve 2 units of blood, broke every bone in and around my left wrist which was surgically repaired, and severley dislocated my left elbow which in turn tore every ligament around the elbow.  I was taken to Alleghany General Hospital , I was just recently life flighted back to AGH due to my splenic artery rupturing again.  Unfortunately even after the splenic artery was repaired there is still a chance that my spleen could have to be removed altogether.  The doctors told me that I have at least 8 months of healing time in the future and due to this I am unable to work during that time. Any funds that are donated will be used for very large medical bills, transportation twice a week to and from Pittsburgh for doctor appts, prescriptions and necessary household bills. Due to the fact that I am NOT allowed to lie down to sleep I would like to be able to purchase a reclining chair to sleep in, for now I have been sleeping sitting up in an arm chair which is not very comfortable in the condition I am in.  My family and I are in need of funds as soon as possible so that I can pay co-pays on meds, avoid utilities being shut off as well as being able to pay rent.  I have to travel to Pittsburgh twice a week for doctors appts which is very costly and since my funds are depleted, as of now next week is up in the air of how I am making it down there for my scheduled appts.  It would mean the world to me and my family for any kind of donation. My family has been through so much already due to this traumatic experience I am trying to avoid any further disruption in our lives due to not being able to make ends meet for the up coming month. I would be extremely thankful for any type of donation. Even the smallest donation will mean the world to me and my family since it will ensure the best doctors are taking care of my needs giving me the best chance at recovering from this incident; it will also ensure that a roof and utilities are kept for us. I cannot express how truly thankful I would be. Anybody that can help would truly be a blessing at this point; with that said thanks in advance to anyone who is willing to help in this truly great time of need.
