Hi, we are the Dedo family. Darren is a loving father to four children and a kind friend to many. A few nights ago, he was hospitalized with what the doctors believed to be common pneumonia. Overnight, his oxygen levels dropped, and he was placed on a ventilator. The doctors have now determined that he has bilateral pneumonia. He was transferred to another ICU unit, where they discovered that his lungs have hardened. Through ECMO, his body is being kept alive to allow his lungs to heal.

During these difficult times, we, as a family, are trying our hardest to look on the bright side. Darren has never been one to give up, and we won't either. Please keep him in your thoughts and prayers.

All donations will go towards Darren’s medical bills and recovery.
