Help Jason Spicer Heal After Heart Surgery

Support for Jason Spicer’s Recovery
My beloved brother Jason was rushed to the ER recently with severe chest pain and nausea. He’s been hospitalized since—and now, he’s preparing for immediate open-heart surgery. The doctors have diagnosed severe heart failure, and this surgery is life-saving and urgent.
He worked for over 20 years as a master foreman, striping roads across the Ohio region. But like so many workers in this country, Jason now faces unemployment, and a terrifying health crisis in a system that was never built to hold him with care.
Insurance in the U.S. is treated like a privilege you can only have if you have the right job, when healthcare should be a human right. Jason will now have to navigate broken disability and Medicaid systems to get even the most basic care, all while recovering from open-heart surgery.
We hate to bring up money at a time like this, but the bills are already piling up—and we know many of you have reached out asking for ways to help.
I'm organizing this fundraiser to support Jason’s healing journey. Contributions will go directly toward:
**Meals for Jason
**Groceries
**Medical expenses and living costs during his long recovery
Thank you to his found family, who always show up. Thank you to our given family, who are grounding this moment with strength and love. And thank you to the new friends meeting Jason for the first time through this campaign—he’s someone worth knowing and fighting for.
Let’s surround him with everything we can. It is only through our care, community, and collective love that we make it through anything at all.
With love for my brother,
edit: some of you have been asking what this is caused by—a genetic mutation. ❣️
