Help Dave Mahoney tackle these medical bills
Donation protected
My name is Angela Hass, and my dad, Dave Mahoney is a beloved substitute teacher and community member in East Palestine. Late on April 21, he went to the hospital for chest pain, arm pain, and shortness of breath... Yep. He had a heart attack. Three of his arteries were 90-95% blocked, including the "widowmaker" artery, and he was promptly scheduled for bypass surgery.
He had triple bypass surgery early on April 25; the surgery went well, but recovery is long! He was discharged on May 2 and has been resting and recovering at home. He is working hard to hit (and exceed) his progress goals every day. He has been called a star patient by home health professionals during evaluations!
My mom, Lisa (an art teacher at Heartland Christian), has been doing an AMAZING job learning how to care for and nurse her husband well. She has taken all recovery protocols seriously and has learned SO much about medications. She is monitoring his diet meticulously to make sure he has the speediest and most successful recovery. I promise, she didn't learn any of this in art school!
As you can imagine, medical bills have racked up quickly. My parents are uninsured and have lost one stream of income. I'm certain the bills feel insurmountable. I know my parents have impacted so many people, and they have already experienced generosity that they are so grateful for. I wanted to set up this gofundme for all the people who have asked me how to help and for everyone who loves my parents.
Sometimes life comes easily, and we can lend a helping hand. Sometimes life is hard, and we need some extra help. I know my parents are big helpers, and I'm hoping and praying they can get a little extra help.
Thank you for any bit you can contribute; it all helps.
