Allen's Urgent Need After Health Crisis

Hello. My name is Kevin Grudenich. I’m raising money for my dad, Allen Grudenich. My dad has been undergoing medical issues for the past 5-6 years and has been in and out of the hospital during that time period. Regardless, he has always been able to keep a full time job and maintain full independence. He had just submitted for his retirement at the end of November after his last trip to the hospital caused him to miss more time from work. His intention was to be retired by April. On Sunday, December 8th he was rushed to the hospital via ambulance and found out his colon ruptured. He had to have emergency surgery ASAP and was put under that afternoon. With his past health problems, they weren’t able to wake him immediately and he spent nearly 3 days on a ventilator. Currently, he is in a rehab facility trying to regain his strength and heal from the surgery. He hasn’t been able to work since December 6th, is out of vacation time, and with his retirement submitted he isn’t able to file for any financial help from the state without withdrawing his retirement. I’m just asking for any financial help to get him through this turbulent time so he can pay his rent and his utilities for the month of January. I love my dad and he’s done the right thing his entire life. We are so glad he made it out of all of this. He never asks anyone for anything and I wouldn’t be asking if it wasn’t a last resort. Thank you for reading his story. Anything you can afford to do is much appreciated.. If you can’t afford anything even so much of a share of his story will go a long way.
