Help Keith Bearden with medical recovery
In May of this year Keith suddenly suddenly could not breath and was admitted to E.R. at the hospital. He was diagnosed with Congestive Heart Failure. During the last few months he has gone through open heart surgery , a heart pump, pace maker and a defibrillator. These procedures are a bridge to a heart transplant in the near distant future.
Keith is a Violin, Viola and Cello bow maker and restorer. This year was his 50th. anniversary as a Bow Maker and he has made Gold Medal award winning bows along with performing intricate restorations for great musicians and artist throughout the world. Currently he has been doing the restoration and making bows for Kenneth Warren & Son in Chicago.
He is now confronted with an immense barrage of ongoing financial challenges. He is the sole provider of his family and his recovery will be a long journey. The bow making, which is his main source of income will have to wait until he has regained his full strength and dexterity. He very much enjoys helping young musicians and acquaintances develop their hidden talents and ambitions.
We are seeking financial help to pay an immense amount of ongoing medical bills and expenses until he can receive his heart transplant which the Doctors estimate will be sometime at the end of spring 2022 . His recovery will be a long journey.
Your Contributions, Help and Encouragement and sharing this campaign, even the smallest amount would be greatly and sincerely appreciated!
All The Best!
