Hi, my name is Marci Nowalk. Donny is my brother. Last night, 8/13, he passed away completely unexpectedly at Geisinger Hospital from a blood clot. This all started with an infection that started in his back due to a medical device that helped control his pain. A week ago he ended up going by ambulance to the hospital because of tremendous pain in his back and couldn’t walk. At the hospital, he completely lost feeling in his legs. On the night of the 12th, they did surgery to remove the wires from his spine and to clean out any infection. His surgery went well. At this point we were waiting to see if he would regain feeling back in his legs. I was with him yesterday, the 13th, for a couple hours and he was ok and doing good. I received a phone call last night telling me that he kept coding. I flew down to Geisinger and was told that there was nothing that they can do for him. That he would not regain brain function. This was all caused by a blood clot. My brother was 46 years old and the wonderful father of 2 boys ages 10 and 7. He was an amazing son, brother, and a friend to many. We are asking for help because he did not have life insurance and would like to be able to have the beautiful service that he so truly deserves. We want him to be remembered as the amazing man that he was. We appreciate any help that we receive. Thank you so much for your time.
