Please Help Geno Johnson with his medical recovery

FEB 6TH 2025

Here we go one more time and hopefully the last one we pray it is anyways. Geno has had to have his leg cut open for the 4th time and is going to be down for a while now. we are asking for some help because he has been down a year and looks like it's will be another 4-6 month he will be down again banking on they have finally fixed his leg that a doctor messed up almost 2 years ago. With that he had to have heart procedure that will have him down also. we are asking from the bottom of our hearts if there's help to be giving. we understand that people have things going on but everyone knows he would be the first to help anybody out if he was able to. So please keep us in your prayers that after all these surgeries he will be fixed as much as they can. he will never be back to 100 percent on his left leg but we will take whatever we can just to get most of his pain gone away to get back to work and taking care of his family like he use to do. Thanks and please keep him in your prayers

Here we are again. We thought things were going to be better with Geno’s second surgery on his left leg; where they went in cut out the tumors and 3 inches of dead nerve (where the original doctor had mistakenly cut). Thanks to everyone’s original help we were able to manage for a few weeks until Geno was able to work. We are still deeply grateful for all of you who helped (donated and prayed). On 3/8/24 Geno went to chiropractor to get his ribs adjusted; during his adjustment the doctor went to adjust his hips by pulling “lightly” on his legs. She pulled a little too hard, because now Geno is in excruciating pain and as of 3/11/24 the ER doctors found a Labral Tear in his right hip. By the end of the day on 3/12/24 Geno couldn’t walk by himself. He has to walk with a walker and I have go be behind to lightly guide his right foot on when to move/walk. He has an appt with specialist coming up to see if he has a fractured hip as well. Geno is very uncomfortable and is in 24 hour pain. Needless to say he can’t work. He was excited about starting a new job on the 25th; unfortunately that won’t be happening. Mean while he still has to have his 3rd surgery on his left lower leg due to the tumors have came back and one being a size of a golf ball! So I’m asking for any help you might be willing to give; along with lots of prayers. Our plates are full and don’t know how much more we can take. Any donation helps or just sharing this page far and wide would be greatly appreciated and really helpful. The donations would go towards helping the ease during this stressful time. It would allow the family to not stress so much on financial things as it would allow us to be together and help Geno at this time. (Geno currently has no medical insurance; medicaid messed up his coverage in their system so now it shows him inactive. We just found this out by receiving previous medical bills in the mail. ) Thank you to everyone who has took the time reading this (and everything from his previous medical problem)! - EvaLena

(From October 2023) Hello to all. I am setting this GoFundMe for someone very special to me, who hasn’t been able to catch a break for some time now. Geno is the type of person who doesn’t like asking for help or any kinda of handout. So I know initially this GoFundMe will bother him because of that fact, but I know this could relieve a lot of stress for him because at the end of the day he just needs any and all the help he can get (from family, friends and even strangers) at this point. Everyone knows Geno will give his shirt off his back or his very last to help someone, but he won’t ever asks for that same help even if his back is against the wall and he should ask for it. Which is a huge part of why I’m putting this GoFundMe together. Geno has had 3 surgeries in the past 6 months (this isn’t even mentioning everything he went through a few years ago when he got diagnosed Congested Heart Failure, along with Chronic Kidney Disease out of nowhere). He had surgery back in May 2023 to fix his foot/leg for plantar fasciitis, but during this procedure the doctor messed up and cut a nerve thats wasnt suppose to be cut. It was after the continuous sharp paralyzing pain Geno felt every day all day in his leg that travel to his foot for 2 almost 3 months we found out what the doctor had actually done with cutting/damaging the nerve. During the time of Geno's leg trying to heal; 2 big tumors had grew on the nerve (these tumors are called Neuroma). After a few different doctor appointments and multiple discussions Geno was referred to a nerve specialist who went back into the leg and cut out 3 inches of damage nerve that was inches away from his initial incision and placed a graft tube. This is suppose to let the nerve grow back through the tube and reconnect eachside of the nerve to one another. If not then he could possibly lose the feeling from his (left calf down to his foot) for life. Geno has truly done everything in his power to try to stay afloat between the normal everyday bills at home (including buying food for him and his family). Then there was the medical/hospital bills which included any equipment and medications that his insurance wouldn’t cover. This left Geno having to pay out-of-pocket. So needless to say; the hospital bills have continued to pile up and not to mention his normal everyday bills have reached an all time high. He will be out of work for at least the next few weeks if not months. So anything you could donate would help out tremendously. I can hear his mouth now saying “people got their own problems”, so i am praying that threw all his FAMILY AND FRIENDS we can come together and give him a little relief financially, emotionally and spiritually. This man loves spending time with his family. When it comes to the little kids from the neighborhood and other kids Geno is known to buy and treat them all when they are around him. He has been struggling a little bit because of everything going on, so if you have his contact information if you could send a little pick me up message that would help him and go way further then you might think. Thank you to everyone who has took the time out of their day to read this! And may God bless every one of you!

FROM: AUGUST 24TH 2024

Here we go again, I am reaching out to whoever is listening geno had another sugery a few months ago to were that had to cut him open again and this time from ankle to knee and removed his whole nerve and whatever nerve he had they ran the bottom have into his foot were he just has signals run and cant go nowhere besides the foot so it just bounces all around and its so pain for him. if you seen some of the videos i took of him, you would just shake your head he is in so much pain at that time. so the upper part of his sural never is ran into the muscle right under the knee cap so just imagine the shock waves. well he went back to the doctor yesterday friday the 24th and the neuromas (tumors) are back again. so still with not working since February or so he might just end up the rest of the uear not bejng able to work. so he just tries his hardest not to be sad and just smile and pretent to be happy. I seee right threw his smiles and see how sad and frustrated n depressed he is. He has always been a MAN that works and brings in the money and gives to anyone and everyone that asks him for anything, even his last and I have personally seen it ALL THEM PEOPLE KNOW WHO THEY ARE. So i am asking from the bottom of my heart, LETS HELP GENO OUT AND BRING HIS SPIRITS BACK UP N FEEL LOVED WHILE HE HOPS AROUND ON HIS CANE WHEN HE CAN LOL.

THANK YOU ALL VERY MUCH FOR YOU HELP IN THE WAY YOU HAVE WEATHER ITS A PRAYER, A PHONE CALL, TEXT MESSAGE, EMAIL OR WHATEVER WE APPRECIATE IT.

p.s. WE PRAY AFTER THIS NEXT SURGERY THAT HE CAN BE RELEASED AND HEALTHY ENOUGH TO GO BACK TO WORK
