Thank you for taking the time. When I was a child I was diagnosed with an ascending aortic aneurysm . My doctors have been keeping a keen eye on my progress but unfortunately my aneurysm has grown beyond the point where it is safe. I have to have an aortic replacement, cardiac ablation, and an aortic valve saving. I will be out of work for at least 6-8 weeks and after my last job, we have no savings left, and my job does not offer short term disability for pre-existing conditions. I'm trying to raise this money to cover some of the massive hospital bills we will be getting and more importantly so my family will be safe and so we don't lose our home.  That's it! I know money is tight for everyone, but if you can picture your family in this position, maybe a small donation would help! David (12), Jacob (4) my beautiful wife Laura and myself (Dave) thank you very much. God bless!
