Helping our friends The Ippolito's
Our friends the Ippolito's are a great family of 5, who have run into very hard times. Katie has battled serious pain due to complications from her last c-section and has been unable to work as an NICU nurse the past 12 months. Their family van blew the transmission and his truck engine seized up. So to be able to work in Vacaville he bought a used motor cycle for the commute. Two weeks ago he was broadsided by an SUV while on his motorcycle andsuffered a partial amputation of his right foot. This has required multiple surgeries to reattach his foot and the prognosis remains uncertain. Their 3 daughters are back on the east coast with family. They had to leave all of their belongings in California because Garrick was going to move everything the end of July, Katie starts her new job Monday in New Hampsire, Garrick's pickup truck remains in Folsom with a blown engine. They are facing the expenses of moving, lost wages and medical bills with Garrick's rehabilitation, and the possibilit he may not be able to return to his career as an electrician.
