Eric P. Bryant Has Urgent Emergency

Donation protected



     My name is Stephanie Bryant-Williams, youngest sibling in the union of Sterling and Ann L. Bryant. My Brother Mark and I are establishing this Go Fund Me campaign for our Eldest Brother Eric P. Bryant to assist with his critical medical expenses which are mounting daily due to a catastrophic vehicular accident he had August 16, 2016. He sustained massive damage to his body. Our goal is $20,000; although his known medical and household expenses are already considerably more. 
    God has blessed Eric with miracle after miracle to bring him to a semblance of medical stability. His journey from a life threatening head-on collision on the interstate resullted with a plethora of injuries and a $31,000 life-flight to a medical center in Scotsdale, AZ where he was treated by a premiere triage team.
    No one else was injured. But, Eric was busted up extremely badly all over.
    The first order of business was to repair Eric's ruptured aortic artery by placing a stint in his thorax. Gratefully, the surgery went better than the surgeons anticipated. As of this writing, the stint is working well.
    The next operation was performed in two surgeries in as many days. Eric's entire pelvis was shattered into golf ball sized fragments. By turning him on his stomach, the doctors were able to pin the back portions first.
    The surgeons realized the extent of Eric's injuries to his pelvis were so severe they required the installation of half a hip to prevent greater difficulties later.
    After this series of operations were completed, the physicians removed the incubation tubing. Eric was able to take his first breaths on his own without incident. He is awake periodically, but not advised to speak much.
    
He did say to his wife Nancy, "I believe I'm going to live." His family members visit and encourage him daily. Mark immediately took a flight to lend his support and compassionately rally the family and  has returned once.
    The medical center sent Eric straight from ICU  to a rehabilitation center and we are waiting for his broken back and 13 ribs to heal. This is a process which will take several months. Eric is wearing back and breast plates currently.
     Eric is on kidney dialysis as well. We praise God for bringing Eric safely thus far and applaude the team of physicians working constantly on his difficult case. We are grateful for every step forward in this painful process. He has a skilled team. He serves a Mighty God.
     Eric is facing long term disability and needs $2,000 by September 8, 2016 to take care of his immediate expenses. We would be very thankful for your monetary support. The mending of his hip wound alone (where they installed the half hip) will take a very long time.  He currently has pneumonia which is problematic and complicating Eric's healing process. 
     We just learned Eric has upper GI Tract bleeding internally one day after arriving at a rehabilitation center. He was rushed to and treated at a hospital. We are not sure where he will be sent next.
     Resuts of the endoscopy peformed on Eric reveal dark spots in his stomach, GI Tract and Esophagus. Currently they are being treated with medication. Biopsy's have been requested and performed.
