Bills Heart Help

On May 26th, 2021 Our dad (Bill Brakefield) was rushed to Fargo because he had a heart attack. Early in the hours of Thursday he had a second more devastating heart attack called a STEMI. He was rushed the the CATH lab where doctors found He had 3 major blockage’s that were  blocking 80%, 90%, 90% of blood flow in his [LDA] left descending artery. 3 stents were placed to cover a total of 4 blockage. On Friday 28 May doctors told us that his heart is only functioning at 30-35% at this time. He has a chance of having another deadly episode in the next 6 weeks. The wind is knocked out of us to hear this news… Because of the extent of the damage: cardiac rehab, a wearable defibrillator, many limitations, new medications and rest are prescribed…. Leading to no income and many unexpected costs. He is a funny, positive, Godly guy who is tough enough to face this with our mom and us kids and our families by his side. 

Your prayers and thoughts are very much appreciated. We have set up this account as dad will be out of work for up to a year.
Dad is an over the road trucker if you’re a trucker or self employed and laid up, you know how hard and stressful this time can be…. Thoughts, prayers or anything you can give are appreciated. Thank you for helping our father during this time.
