*****Bryan is managing pain better, which is great. He still isn’t putting weight back on and has actually lost a little more. He still gets really weak and dizzy throughout the day and still isn’t able to return to work yet. Him not working is really hard for us, as it would be for most anyone. I am doing my best to find help however I can.  This is truly one day at a time. The light at the end of the tunnel is still at a distance for now. So, again we are asking if anyone can and will help we would truly appreciate it.

**Edit*** Bryan has been admitted back in to the hospital as of 5/5. 

To say this is humbling and gut wrenching to do, is an understatement.

As many of you know Bryan works for a very small electrical company; as in up to a few weeks ago he was the only employee for a long time. He is hardworking, takes pride in his work and always gives 110%. The downside to where Bryan works is it doesn’t offer any benefits and if he doesn’t work he doesn’t get paid. He never takes days off even when he is sick- until recently.

We just moved unexpectedly about a month ago and that was followed by Bryan having to go out of town for work again. On April 22nd, the day after he returned home, Bryan became very ill and I ended up taking him to the ER. This visit that we thought would just be the typical “here is what is wrong, let’s make you feel better”, turned into him being admitted in to the hospital for 10 days. He is home now but, still trying to get better as he now has many meds he has to take, no energy, can’t sleep and isn’t even able to walk any further than in the house. We will have to have follow up appointments and I’m sure he will have meds that he will have to continue taking for a while or at least for the time being.

Bryan is the main source of our income for our family. With no insurance, not having the ability to work (so he is not being paid at all) and not knowing when he will be able to safely return to work, we are going to have mounting medical bills along with monthly bills and daily needs.

While it is extremely hard to ask for help, sometimes we have no choice. This is our ask for help. If you can help in any small way to help us manage the next several weeks we would be incredibly grateful. Thank you won’t even begin to cover it. It will all go to help cover and pay medical bills, needed medicines and follow up visits, along with help paying bills, keeping gas in the tank and food on the table. Thoughts and prayers are also appreciated.

Bryan is out of the hospital again. We are hoping we can keep him out this time. His meds were switched up again and new procedures were done to help him. They did help, but he is still very weak, only walking around the house and to the end of our driveway now, not sleeping more than a couple hours here and there, not eating how he needs to be and has lost 37+ pounds in 5 days. 

He is still on multiple New medications, a couple very expensive ones - one being $1600. Hopefully these aren’t meds that he will be on long term, but will be for the time being. 

I hope to have more and better news soon. For now we are still asking for help in any way possible. It’s extremely hard to ask for help, but we need it. So, if you can help we thank you. Sharing our page as well is a big help too.
