Hi, my name is Marian Tudor and together with my wife of 43 years, we live in Chilliwack, BC, and I am fundraising in order do not loose our home.
I used to be a long haul truck driver and on April 12, 2024 I was coming back home from Texas when I stopped in Moriarty, NM for a lunch break. I ended up dying due to a massive heart attack - 30 minutes without oxygen nor heartbeat. Paramedics tried CPR and electric shocks without any success. By the end of those 30 minutes the ambulance arrived at the Heart Hospital in Albuquerque, NM and my heart restarted. All doctors and nurses couldn't understand why and how was it possible for my heart to restart after those 30 minutes, but when they noticed that it did, they put me right away into an induced comma and I couldn't explained to them what happened and why my heart started again. You see, after I died, the first thing I saw was a big circle with two arc of circles inside, lower-left section, and all of a sudden the big circle filled up with the face of Jesus Christ, surrounded by a holy and bright light, and smiling, HE told me: "Don't worry, I will take you through this!" Now, New Mexico has a law, that if no relative is present when something like this is happening, they automatically enroll you in a "Organ Donor Transplant Program". So they put me in a comma in order to preserve my organs. Only, my wife, which I managed to call right before I died, came the next day and put a big dent in their plans. I was in a comma 6 weeks in total. 3 weeks in Albuquerque and 3 weeks in BC, Canada. But over there, after the first week they started putting pressure on my wife to pull the plug, saying that from their experience even if I wake up from the comma I will be a vegetable for the rest of my life: not able to talk or do anything. She refused again and after two more weeks, on May 2nd, 2024. they transferred me to Surrey Memorial Hospital in {Surrey} British Columbia. Unfortunately they didn't have beds over there but after three days and three nights, still in a comma and on the hallways of the hospital, they finally found a bed available at Burnaby Hospital. So on May 5th, 2024 I was transferred again. At Burnaby Hospital, on May 25th, 2024, just one day before of my birthday, I woke up from the comma and I am still speaking English, French and Romanian, not what the doctors were saying - that I will not. So far, it is a long way until full recovery and by far troubles haven't ended up yet. On July 2nd, 2024 I was admitted at Queens Park Rehabilitation Center in New Westminster, BC for recovery only to be forced by one of the physiotherapists into a difficult exercise out of which I ended up with a double tear on my left shoulder cuff rotator muscles (supraspinatus 80% and subscapularis 50%) On September 2nd I ended up in Burnaby Hospital again with some mild chest pains, to find out that I will need a 3 wires pacemaker (called CRT) in order to help with an 3-4 level AV node block. Well, the ordeal wasn't finished yet. I had the CRT implanted on September 27, to find out exactly one month later, at the follow-up appointment that one of the three wires (right ventricle) is loose inside my heart. I was told that being a priority, I will have the dislodged wire reattached very soon. But they forgot to mention that "priority" and "very soon" actually in Canadian medical system means "months". So four months later, in April 2025 I went again for a surgery to have the wire reattached. During this time, from September 2024 to April 2025 the scamming begun and it didn't end until August 2025. It occurred from my credit cards (about CAN $26,000) and from a line of credit (about CAN $43,000). By the time we were able to do anything all this money were gone. I am 66 years old, relying on a pension that is next to nothing in today's economic turmoil, and on a Uber/Lyft part time job. It is a part time job because I am attending rehabilitation programs (which require time) and due to the side effects of medications I am taking. Still having to pay few more years on the mortgage, we are afraid that we may loose our house, now that the bank, the one with the line of credit especially, is pushing hard for payments we can't cope with. And in a few more months, it looks like I'll have to go for a surgery on my left shoulder also. That will means, at my age, the least four months for a full recovery and as such, further reduced monthly income. And ... we need your help to pay our debts and save our home! May God bless you all!
And yes, I am a Christian and a follower of Jesus Christ. And I met HIM so far 3 (three) times - the above being the 3rd time. I WAS there when HE was being nailed to the cross for our sins, (and as such I became a nowadays' witness of His crucifixion), and I was there after HIS resurrection, walking with HIM {and as such I became a witness of His resurrection}.
And yes, I reduced the amount from CAN $69.000 to CAN $34,500 for I noticed that no one is helping, campaigning also for the other half on GiveSendGo. So, let's see who is going to be helping more and really understand the urgency of much needed help; , the community of GiveSendGo or rather the community of GoFundME, for I noticed that a dog or a cat would be helped faster then a fellow human being! And again, may God bless you all!
