My name is Joanne. My other half, the father of our 24-year-old daughter, is Victor. We met many years ago in 1997 and have been together ever since. Vic had a bad motorcycle accident in 1992 that left his arm paralyzed. He moved on and found a way to work as an interior painter until a couple of years ago. His health started going downhill. He's a type 2 diabetic and has been in and out of the hospital for pretty much 20 years. Victor was diagnosed with heart failure and also had a benign tumor removed 2 years ago. Very recently, Victor's arm had to be amputated due to a bone infection. Victor also lost the love of his life, his mom Janet, a couple of years ago, and then lost my father a month right after Janet passed. Victor misses his mom daily, which leads to depression. Not being able to work now, his teeth have been really hurting badly. Victor needs extensive dental surgery. Victor does have dental insurance, but we know how much teeth are especially these days.. I don't know how much more Victor can take, especially with the pain every day.

Victor is a good 52-year-old family man.

He doesn't smile anymore; confidence is little to none. It breaks my heart to see him like this .victor was always tge positive person, now not so much. Let's all please help Victor on a good positive path.

And the people that donated thank you again, a million times, happy father's day to all you fathers out there..

Thank you all ❤️. Joanne V.
