Surgery (without insurance)

Hi, my name is Carina and I am fundraising for my “little” brother.

He’s had diverticulitis for approximately 2 years now, 8 infections later and countless hospitalizations - one currently ongoing- in Missouri, have left him no choice but to get surgery for it. At this point, it’s becoming increasingly life threatening and he’s only 31 years old.

The infection that may hit his bloodstream, is becoming increasingly harder and harder to treat, and the hospitalizations longer each and every time.

A selfless giver who invested an enormous amount of money to regain custody of his wife’s three children, put himself always second and didn’t prioritize his needs over her desire to regain custody of her children.

A tireless hard worker who worked from morning until night to provide for his family, inputting fiber optics nationwide- had nothing left when it was his turn to save his own life.

Kidney stones galore, this condition- and nothing made him stop until recently- when he was admitted and everything became a hard stop.

Given that he is a subcontractor, and wanted to take care of his family to the fullest degree, he did not purchase health insurance- instead sent every dollar to his wife and her children.

Now, surgery is urgently necessary to save his life, and no insurance available any longer. (As this is considered a pre-existing condition now)

We attempted to get him Obama care, but to no avail.

Desperation to pull these funds together and get him his surgery in the next 6 weeks, max, is beyond words that can be described.

Needless to say, no one in our family has been at rest since this dire and urgent situation arose.

Please help with whatever you can.
