Help Eric's family be by his side
Donation protected
Hi all, As many of our friends and family already know, Eric Folsom is fighting major heart issues in Boston at Mass General. Eric is prepping for some complicated heart surgery within the next month. There are very hard decisions to be made and some scary risks involved. It will be a long road but we are all fully invested in getting down it. He will most likely be in Boston for several months. Eric is surrounded by love and support from friends and family from afar. Megan, Lawrence and I are beyond grateful for all that have already helped us be there for Eric at this very scary and stressful time. Megan and Lawrence have dropped everything to be by their father's side. They have been in the hospital with him daily and overnight when allowed for weeks. They traveled from far away and gave up vacations and working hours to be here for their father. I know Eric did not want them to give these things up. The love shown between these three Folsoms is strong. When he finally came out of 10 days of heavy sedation and saw his children standing over him there were tears in his eyes. We are all very stubborn, do it on our own people. But at this time I am asking for some help in paying for a place for them to stay near the hospital that also can house Gary and I as we travel back and forth from South Burlington and Boston. I wish that I was in a position to financially support them through this but that is not the case. Any amount of assistance would really ease the burden of housing, dining and travel expenses as we support Eric through his fight for better health.
