Help Michael as he recovers from amputation.

Hi, my name is Rio and I am creating this GoFundMe for Michael Rudas who is in surgery as I type this.

After eight months of enforced bed rest, multiple rounds of antibiotics and six surgeries, all attempts to clear the bone infection in his left foot have sadly failed. Michael is in surgery at this moment having his lower leg amputated. Funds are needed right away.

This is a long recovery he is about to embark on and neither Michael or his loving wife, Marla will be able to work during this time. Michael will need help to cover hospital bills, medications and living expenses as he slowly recovers. This GoFundMe will also be critical in helping Michael afford a suitable wheelchair and eventually a prosthetic. Michael is 6'7 feet tall which may require specialized sizes which of course will be expensive.

Michael and Marla need help during this difficult time. They have been a constant source of love and support for so many never asking anything in return. Now it's our turn to give back.

Michael should be coming out of surgery soon, let's get this rolling. I know they will appreciate this more than you know. I will keep everyone updated.

On behalf of Michael and Marla, thank you so very much.
