Help Overcome Financial Stress Post-Amputation

Ive been doing ironwork all around Lubbock & surrounding areas, Texas & a handful of states. I'm a proud ironworker & been doing it since 19 & now 40. From the IMax theater to H.E.B, UMC hospital, Covenant Hospital, most of are neighboring towns schools & hospitals, plus all the 100s of different projects around Lubbock, many different metal projects all around Techs campus. Even all the many remodels @Techs Football stadium. The last project before the fall I was helping build the new Cooper Liberty High School. December 21st of 2023 I went to work like always, getting ready for a few days off for Christmas Holidays. I was going up to do some placing & welding but as quick as I went up I was falling down. I ended up falling down from a height that could've killed me or do some major damage. But I just remember waking up in & out in the ambulance ride, I looked at all my injuries then passed out again. Apparently I had landed straight on my feet. The force turned my heal bones to powder, they said I tried to stand but fell because bones stuck out my legs & hands. I ended up breaking both legs, both wrists, and broke thank God I didn't end up dead or paralyzed. As of January 30th I'm at 33 surgical procedures February 12 will make 34 w/ possibly more ahead. I broke my body. My life from that point on was the most horrendous memory I'll never forget. I was sick of pain I was sick life. I was tired of being tired. My whole way of living all if sudden just stopped. I ended up choosing amputation of my left foot because I was just tired of the pain, infections & surgeries to try and save it. The pain was so out of control I chose amputation. It was a hard desion but it took the pain away. But I still have other injuries that still need looked at...

I still have a lot of ppl who still need me around. I'll do anything to change what's happened but lifes dealt me a a set of cards that I know he's gonna see me though all this, I won't fold . My lil girl Gianna used to see me in my good days working high up or driving big heavy equipment. Shes always been my biggest fan. She requested I go work at McDonald's when I'm better. Said she didn't wanna see me hurt again. I have her & a lot more that's worth living for. If this doesn't work I ain't mad at 'cha. My future is uncertain still but I'll okay, I have no choice but to adjust. It's just a lil difficult right now. But if working at McDonald's helps me take care of my family then that's what meant for for to work at then that what I'll do. Until then my ironworker days don't look too good for the future. I apologize to myself & family/friends that it's come to this point but I just want everyone to know that if I get help or not I'll always be in good Spirits "G" is survivor, the best thing a man can do is learn to adjust.. This is just a minor scratch I'ma put a bandaid on it get back to ironwork. It's only temporarily. I might haved lost a foot but it's ok I have another one
