Donate to Aid a Father's Spinal Surgeries

Donation protected
I am asking for help... for the first time in my life. I had an accident at work, by a new employee, and injured my spine. I've had three surgeries on my spine, all within one year. Two through my back, and the third (a fusion) from the front, just above my pubic bone. I had to have my spine fused at my pelvis. I still need up to two surgeries on my spine in order to have "a normal life." I am getting more epidurals in my spine just to take some of my pain away. Sometimes they work for a few days. I am supposed to have my sacroiliac joint fused in order to have mobility. It is crucial in transferring weight between my upper body and legs. It is also essential for balance, mobility, and lower back function. And another with a spinal nerve stimulator. That is where they insert two electrical wires up each side of my spinal cord, inserted from my lower back. The battery pack is inserted under my skin at the top of my butt cheek. The battery lasts up to 4-6 years. Then they cut it back out and replace it with a new one. I also had an accident on Thanksgiving morning. My back shut my legs off , & I piled up breaking my left foot & snapping two ligaments in my left ankle. I just had reconstructive surgery on May 19th. I am to put NO WEIGHT on my ankle/foot for at least 30 days. I have spent my life savings on all this, & now I am out of money! I have been off work since April of 2021. I still have two little girls @ home, and my wife. She is working as well. I REALLY NEED YOUR HELP PLEASE!!!

I am just asking for help so I can pay for my procedures. Any help will be much appreciated. THANK YOU ALL IN ADVANCE!
