<div>My wife Bridgette was making all the food for the 4th of July, and a friend dropped by to bring some potato salad. So, she went out to get it. She turned and twisted the wrong way and fell down off the steps.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>There was no handrail to grab, so she fell about 5 feet to the concrete, landing on her left hand. Her left wrist was broken in several places.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>She just retired this year, but it’s too early to receive Medicare, and we have no insurance.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>When I first met my wife, I was not doing so well, and she picked me up and started to fix my life. Together, we became whole.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>She helped me take care of my mother for 7 years while she declined into dementia. It was a very difficult time, but Bridgette stood strong with me and helped our family through it all.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Then, after that, she brought her mother, her older sister, and her younger brother here to Idaho to help get them in a better place. Her younger brother is disabled, and to this day, she is his caregiver—11 years now.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Her mom was on hospice and very sick, but Bridgette helped her mother live a more comfortable life before she passed, bringing all of the family around for her mother to enjoy in her last years.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Bridgette has always been a giver. She would give her last dollar and find a way to help anyone, even if it meant struggling herself.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>For the most part, she just worked hard, and we made it through tough times together.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>This was a devastating situation because she can’t really go back to work until she heals.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div><strong>The emergency surgery was something we couldn’t avoid because of how badly her bones were shattered.</strong> I’m on social security and work part-time, so I’m unable to pay this hospital bill.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>It’s a sad thing that when you get hurt, it’s impossible to make payments or just deal with it however you can.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Thank you for your love and support.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Sincerely, Kevin Sorrels
