Justin’s Medical Fund

As many of you may know our good friend and Local 38 brother Justin Kitching, had a very severe work related accident on Monday 9/30. Justin was knocked off the 8’ ladder he was on while attempting to work on a condenser water piping system which unbeknownst to him,  had over 200 pounds of pressure behind it when it decided to let loose. The resulting force blew the 8” coupling and cap into his hands and face knocking him off his ladder and onto the concrete floor below. Justin sustained some very serious injuries including two broken eye sockets, deep cuts, scrapes, and contusions, and bruises on his face, arms, and legs.  He has a large laceration on his right hand that runs across 3/4 of his palm wraps around his thumb and across the top of his hand requiring multiple stitches, and a very severe open break just above his left wrist.  It’s this break that will almost certainly require surgery, the need to see a specialist, and months of physical therapy. Please help me help Justin and the family, absorb some of the medical, surgery, and physical therapy costs and expenses that are sure to  accrue in the coming  months.
