Help 638 Steamfitter Zlatko Vuletic

Our brother Zlatko Vuletic was diagnased with Covid-19 Wednesday, April 28th. After quarentining for 2 weeks, he decided to take another week off to get his retirement set up for, what was planned to be, the end of summer 21'. Shortly after leaving the union hall May 13th, he became disoriented and unbalanced but was able to drive himself to the nearest Emergency room. Soon after running tests at his local hospital, Z was told he had suffered a stroke recently and needed further investigation. After, he was moved to Mount Sania on 99th St. Manhattan which he underwent immediate brain surgery to relieve swelling along with other complication from the stroke. Z is currently recovering from his surgery but has a long journey ahead of him to be able to stand, walk, and talk again.

Z has put 25+ years of his life working for 638, and has been a loyal brother and friend to many of us. He has two 13 year old daughters he has been providing for and medical bills accruing.. any help from his Friends and Family will be greatly appreciated!
