Carmen Bentivegna's Medical Bills

Donation protected
We are trying to raise money for my brother's medical bills. He has had several hospital admissions since October and is now stuck in the hospital after surgery with post op complications. Here is his story:
...I am very sick and eager to get well and be with my family and friends. Starting in October I realized I was going to the bathroom much more than I should anywhere I went. I always had to find the bathroom wherever I was. October 31 came usually a big day for the family. We have a big party get the kids together and all of our friends. I woke up with a horrible fever and even though I never go to the hospital I went. I tested positive for Covid, and they sent me home and told me to take an antibiotic for 30 days and that if it did not get better go see a urologist. Days later I was at the urologist, meeting him for the first time. I discussed symptoms and he violated me in ways that should not be done on a first date. He sent me to get a CT scan which I was able to get the next day. I received a phone call from him after the CT scan telling me to go to the hospital because I had a severe infection. I went to the hospital and received IV Antibiotics. After I was discharged, I was kept on antibiotics. Since then, I have had several admissions where I needed to get IV antibiotics hoping to settle the infection so I could get surgery to repair the damage that was happening. Of course, I could not wait until the date of surgery and spiked another temperature requiring another hospital admission days before my scheduled surgery. Now 6 days after my surgery I am not getting any better and continue to have complications. All I want to do is get out of the hospital, go home with my girls, my wife, my animals and have a nice bottle of Coca-Cola!
