Jeremy Matthews Medical and Financial Recovery

Donation protected
Howdy, I’m raising medical recovery funds for my cousin Jeremy. He is as tough as Texas with a pure heart. He doesn’t ask for assistance but knows this is going up and would greatly appreciate your support. Donate here. Message him or I on FB, if you’d prefer, to find out how to contribute monetarily or other. Here’s his recap and current medical update:
A few years ago I had back surgery. The doctor cancelled a key instrument that would have caught the piece of bone left in me that cut the spinal cord open. He had to go back in 6 weeks later to sew it up. It also lead to other issues. I couldn't find a lawyer to help me because the law restricted the amount they could sue for and it wasn't enough to recover damages to my credit because I couldn't pay for a second surgery, (No Insurance, was a self-employed contractor) and the doctor stuck me with all the bills to sew it up (destroying my 835 credit score). Haven't been able to work very much in 5 years due to intense pain. This surgery was a 3 level cervical fusion between C-5, C-6, and C-7 that is very expensive. I can't buy groceries and I'm trying to keep the electricity and other expenses covered. I'm also taking care of my father who had 2 major strokes for the last 12 years, in and out of surgery, and can't pay my bills. This Surgery was on August 7, 2024. First surgery was Oct 23, 2019, and surgery to sew up spinal cord was Dec 25, 2024. I'm alone, was engaged but didn't workout. In need of any assistance to keep my house. I lost a roofing company, my family, social life, relationships, and all savings. Any help would help save my home. Thank very much!
