Help my dad, Scott Reed, recover from surgeries.

Donation protected
Since last Wednesday Scott has been having heart problems. We were at columbia st marys in mequon to have a stent that was unsuccessful due to the seriousness they discovered with him having coronary artery disease for years that we didn't know. They didn't have the equipment to do so, so they moved him to Columbia st marys on the lake.

There they were able to put in 5 stents to help his right side of his heart. Those unfortunately failed, and he then had a major heart attack. They then did a rush open heart surgery to do a bypass and had to go back in to put in an impella pump, to push against his right side of his heart to get blood flow.

Unfortunately, his right side was completely closed up due to muscle failures/problems. This occurred because for the past couple years he's been having mini heart attacks, which damaged his heart and muscle. He was then put on the highest life support and every med but was failing and critical.

We then moved him to Froedtert in Milwaukee to put him on a an Ecmo machine that would do all the work of his right side of his heart. That surgery was a success. However, his lungs/kidneys and liver went days without oxygen, so they are unsure if they are going to be salvageable. These next 24-48 hrs are going to determine whether he will pull through this or not.

Any help anyone can provide, even if it's one dollar, will help immensely for my parents. I know they wouldn't ask for help, but I figured I would try something.
