Coppeta Family Assistance

Donation protected
Our friend Jeff Coppeta has been fighting a difficult battle for months and is still in it.  Jeff was med flighted to Brigham and Women's Hospital on December 11, 2021 in septic shock due to pancreatitis.  His organs were failing and and had to be put on a ventilator and on dialysis.  For weeks, his life was in the balance.  Jeff remained mostly unconscious for approximately two months as his body tried to fight off a deadly infection.  For a time, it felt like every step forward was followed by two steps back.  And with all that happening, his family wasn't even permitted in to see him until recently due to Covid restrictions. 

Jeff remained at Brigham and Women's for three months and was just recently discharged to Spaulding Rehab in Cambridge with atrophy and difficulty walking.  He will be spending weeks at Spaulding for physical and occupational therapy while he continues to fight a lingering infection.  This is huge progress for him and we are all hopeful that he will be home with all of us soon.  

Along with your prayers and good thoughts, we are asking for any financial help that you can offer to the Coppeta family.  Jeff will continue to have a long road to recovery once he is released from the rehabilitation hospital.   They are facing expenses for medical care and lost income and all of the other expenses that arise when a family member faces this kind of challenge.  

Jeff is "that guy" - the guy that you see at Merrill's Tavern in Atkinson and stop to talk to, the guy that you have seen at Woodlock park volunteering his time as a baseball and softball coach.  We all love Jeff.  He is a loving husband, father and an amazing friend.  Please, as a community, let's send some of his good vibes back to him and his family.
