Help Ted Heal — After a Devastating Hand Injury, He Needs Support to Rebuild
Our son, Ted Hemberger, recently suffered a traumatic injury — breaking his hand in three places. He’s now facing major surgery and a long road of physical therapy and recovery. Ted is currently living in Medellín, Colombia, without insurance or financial support, and the cost of treatment, medications, and living expenses is overwhelming.
Ted is a talented videographer and editor whose hands are his livelihood. He’s been forced to stop working due to the injury, and with no income, he’s struggling to cover even the most basic expenses. On top of that, he’s caring for his two beloved dogs and doing everything he can to avoid losing his home.
If you know Ted, you know he’s spent years using his creativity and passion to uplift others. He’s filmed powerful, positive videos that have touched thousands, and he’s always gone out of his way to help — from buying pillows for the homeless to supporting people through recovery and hardship.
He’s never been one to ask for help — but now he needs ours.
We’re asking friends, family, former clients, and kind-hearted strangers to step up and contribute whatever you can. Your donation will help cover:
Urgent surgery and follow-up medical care
Physical therapy sessions
Medications and post-op treatment
Rent and basic living expenses while he’s unable to work
Food and care for his dogs
Transportation to and from medical visits
Ted has always shown up for others. Now, we hope you’ll show up for him.
Any amount helps. Even sharing this campaign could make all the difference.
With gratitude,
The Hemberger Family
