Donate to assist Demetrius - Thank you

Donation protected
Hello everyone, I am Demetrius' partner, Janu, I have been asked by people who know Demetrius if I have a GoFundMe account to help Demetrius and me during this very difficult time. It was very kind of them to want to assist us with the additional costs.

Demetrius had a stroke the day before Thanksgiving and was moved immediately to Redwood City for 2 surgeries, on December 2nd he was moved to San Rafael Kaiser and will be moving to a rehabilitation center very soon.

I have been able to go to the hospital at least once a day every day since Thanksgiving. It means a lot to me to be there for him to ensure he is comfortable. I tell people it feels like we are in the movie Groundhog Day. We both are looking forward to the day after when D will be walking through our front door exclaiming "I AM HOME!."

The money raised will mainly be going toward transportation costs, gasoline, tolls, and wear and tear on his truck. I am also working less as I often spend over 5 hours a day going back and forth to the hospital.

I have increased the goal as I am finding amazing tools we can use at home to assist with rehabilitation. https://www.flintrehab.com/product/fitmi/?utm_source=Blog&utm_medium=FitMi%20Inside%20Article And our home will need some work to make it accessible for Demetrius.

Thank you all who want and have the ability to assist Demetrius through this difficult time.

Happy Holidays, Demetrius and Janu
