Help my Parents Survive during Medical Emergency
Donation protected
Hi! My name is Alex and my parents have been facing a lot of serious issues. Their housing has been unstable for years, but last year my dad, Marc, was diagnosed with long COVID as well as heart failure, kidney failure and respiratory issues as a result of one COVID infection in the summer of 2022. He has been battling these issues for over a year and I have been completely overextending myself trying to help them stay afloat. I have gotten myself into a tough financial place and I need help to be able to continue to help them.
As a result of my dad’s long COVID we have been paying tons for medications and appointments and transportation. About a month ago, my father was trying to work and while driving he lost consciousness due to low potassium and difficulty breathing (a result of his long COVID conditions) and he was in a car accident totaling his work truck as well as striking a culvert where he broke his sternum and some ribs on the steering wheel. These injuries have rendered him completely unable to work for 8-12 weeks as he is a manual laborer and he cannot lift or move anything until his bones heal.
I am hoping to raise money to help them afford groceries as I have been Instacarting them but I no longer can afford it. I hope it will also help with their bills and if there is some left over I am hoping to catch up on all of my late bills that have been neglected so I could provide food and necessities for my parents.
They are located in Holden LA for anyone familiar with resources in the area. Anything you can donate is so so so greatly appreciated and sharing this with those who can donate is a huge help too! Thank you so much in advance!
My very best,
Alex
