New heart, New life
My name is Ashley and this is my husband Brian. Since 2001 he has been the sole provider for our family so that I could stay home and raise our 2 (special needs) sons. On February 15th Brian suffered a fairly major heart attack followed by open heart, triple bypass surgery and 20 days in the hospital. He is now home, but dealing with minor complications. He will be out of work a minimum of 3 months from the date of surgery. Brian is a 4th generation IBEW electrician. As you may have guessed, if he doesn't work, he doesn't get paid. His last (half) day of work was the day of his heart attack (2/15/18). With the lack of income the bills are piling up. The mortgage and utilities are among those that aren't getting paid. The big medical bills from his hospital stay and surgery have yet to come in.
