Help our dad
Don protégé
On 1/3/2023 our lives were turned upside down.
Burns all over his body from a fire in the garage has taken our Daddy from us sending him to the Swedish Hospital ICU burn unit! Our Mommy is also gone cause she has to support our Daddy and holds vigil while he fights for his life!
A call from the neighbors said there was a fire and my Johnny was being cared for by the EMT`s was rushed to the emergency room.
His body was still smoking when he banged on the neighbors door asking for help. They saw the fire from the window as the garage burned down. Burns all over his body from his ankles to his neck from a fire in the garage has taken over our Johnny. He didn`t see it coming as he was blowing glass in the vibe and working on some new art. He didn`t see the monster that was growing from a frayed extension cord. As the fire hit the boxes and began to climb the wall it got hot enough to melt the valves from the oxygen tank, as the valves gave out high pressure oxygen began to spray straight at Johnny from the back. It turned into a high volume torch with the flames being spread by pure oxygen. In seconds he was engulfed in flames searing his flesh to the third degree. We got the call and we went, we left everything behind us and life changed and we can never go back. So many surgeries they cant give us a number months in a hospital so much to figure out.....
Daddy has made it thru the first two nights and we are so proud of his will to live! Our mommy has been so strong as she prays for daddy and us that this will all be ok. We need to help Mommy, she is 3 hours away and has no where to stay. Mommy has to take time off work to care for Daddy and we are with our Aunty Shay. We need to use the help for a place to stay, food for mom, and medical expenses.
The doctors say Daddy will be in the hospital for months! After the hospital Daddy will need rehab and he will never be the same. With burns from his feet to his neck this is gonna be a long time of family separation and financial stress. Please help our family get thru this super hard time. We will give you more updates as we get them and we appreciate all the support from all you wonderful and generous people.
We know Mommy and Daddy wouldn`t be asking for help if they truly didn’t need it. Please donate if you can, share with all your friends and above all PRAY!!
Love JB and Charlotte!
