Hello all, this is Tina, John Howard's wife. As many times as I have donated to various GoFundMe fundraisers, I never imagined that we would need one personally. But, with John being in the hospital for 2 surgeries, returning to the hospital near death and in critical condition, and the subsequent hospital stay, we both have missed work and pay. He arrived home today, still with a drain, and will be out at least one more week of work, possibly more.

I am not asking for help with medical bills, as we will address those as they come. But our immediate need is help with this month's bills, due to our work time/pay loss while going through this hospital/surgery/life saving hospital stay.

Any help is appreciated, even if all you can give is a prayer. Prayer is something you can never have too much of.
