My brother is 57 years old and is undergoing open heart surgery today, December 10th, after doctors discovered three arteries blocked at 100% and one at 50%. The news has been devastating for our family, especially after losing our father in August. My brother has always worked hard to support his family, but now he faces a long recovery and won't be able to work for up to 12 weeks. His current insurance has a high deductible before it covers a portion of costs, and he has only met a small part of that this year. To make matters worse, starting January 1st, he will lose his coverage because he can't work, and he can't afford to pay to keep it. We're trying to get disability and Medicaid, but approval takes time. My sister-in-law's salary won't cover the bills, and they're at risk of losing everything and becoming homeless. I just started a new job after being off work for 16.5 months, so I know how hard it is to get back on your feet. Our family is doing everything we can, but we need help. The funds raised will go directly to their bank account to cover medical bills, living expenses, and insurance costs while my brother recovers and we wait for disability and Medicaid approval. Anything you can give is greatly appreciated. Please help us during this emergency—this is a 911 call for support. Your kindness will make a real difference for my brother and his family.
