Bob Conkey's Medical Expenses
Donation protected
On Friday evening, December 11th 2015, Bob Conkey suffered a severe head injury after a fall on his stairs at his home. As a result, he experienced a traumatic brain injury that also required surgery on December 14.
Many know Bob as a family member, youth sports enthusiast, Boardman resident, and Department Director at D&E Counseling Center, Inc.
Bob has been hospitalized at Mercy Hospital (St. Elizabeth on Belmont Ave) since his accident. He has had surgery to repair a skull fracture and to assure there was no continued bleeding in his head. While he suffered other fractures and injuries as a result of his fall, his head injury and determining any long term effects are the pressing matters. While he has some periods of confusion, he is strong and working hard to rehabilitate from his injury.
Bob is a beloved and long-time staff of D&E and dear friend of all who know him, so we ask that you keep him in your thoughts and prayers as he works to recover from this injury. His family has expressed sincere appreciation for the tremendous outreach of support
While Bob has health insurance from D&E, he and his family will have significant medical expenses associated with this injury, surgery and ongoing treatment and rehabilitation. Many people in the community have asked what they could do or how they could help. That is a personal decision and Bob’s family is gracious for the outpouring of support. For those who might want to contribute to a fund to help support the Conkey family with medical expenses, please consider making such a donation through this GoFundMe account.
Thanks to everyone for your kind expressions of concern that we have received every day since Bob’s accident. Bob's wife Jen, their sons Luke and Michael, all of his family, and his friends at D&E Counseling Center all thank you in advance for your kind consideration of support!
Sincerely,
Jen, Luke and Michael Conkey
