Chris Pierpont has worn many hats. He played in bands for many years. He is a father to two. He is a brother to four. He is a smart and talented man. He now works as a machinist in a two-person shop. He is our friend.

Chris has several health problems, many of which could be helped with some preventive/therapeutic care, which is not covered by his insurance. He is unable to afford oxygen, which he needs regularly. His insurance covers a small portion of the cost of the oxygen, but it is up to Chris to pay the balance. At this point, he is having a heart catherization on Tuesday. Not only will the post-surgery bills be incredible, he will miss work, and therefore miss income to pay his mortgage and regular bills.

If you don't know Chris, please know that this is a man worth having in this world. Please consider a donation as a recognition that our medical system is broken. Please justify it however you need to, but let's help this well-loved man.
