My name is Melissa, I am doing this on the behalf of one of my best friends. He’s the most generous, caring, selfless, animal lover, hard working person I have ever met.

As of the night of July 18th, he was not feeling well and progressively got worse. A friend brought him to the hospital. And then he was transferred to Stony Brook hospital to find out he’s suffered a stroke and loss the use of the left side of his body.

He is the caregiver of his disabled mother. He the breadwinner and the head of his household working himself to care and give for his mother and himself.

I'm not sure when he’ll be able to come back to work, it might be some time with rehab and physical therapy. The road looks long but there is light at the end of the road. I’m asking for well wishes and what ever you can do for someone I know that would do the same for the next person and myself.
