Help Raymon and Tami in Their Time of Need

Update:

Raymon is out of surgery and back in his room. The surgery went well. As soon as I have more information, I will post.

My name is Cand Lee,

I am reaching out to our community for help and support for our dear friends, Raymon and Tami, who have faced unimaginable challenges over the past year.

In March 2024, Raymon suffered a crack in his heel, which, unfortunately, led to an E. coli infection. What seemed like a simple injury quickly spiraled into a life-threatening situation. The infection was so severe that doctors feared they might have to amputate his foot. Thankfully, the infection did not reach the bone, but Raymon had to endure 24-hour IV antibiotic therapy for six weeks, requiring daily visits to Northstar for wound care. He spent several months on bed rest, unable to work. The recovery process has been incredibly taxing, and Raymon was out of work for nearly 8 months.

In December 2024, Raymon returned to work part-time, but unfortunately, during this period, he lost his medical insurance and had been working hard to get it back when disaster struck again. Just as things were looking up, Raymon suffered a heart attack, sending him back to the hospital. He is currently at Tacoma General Hospital, where on March 29th, he is scheduled for a quadruple bypass surgery.

Meanwhile, Tami, his wife, has also been facing her own medical challenges. She underwent ankle surgery on December 18th and had just returned to work for one day before Raymon’s heart attack. Both of them have been unable to work for months, and due to the lack of insurance and income, they are struggling to make ends meet during this incredibly difficult time.

We are asking for your support—every donation, no matter how big or small, will go a long way in helping them cover medical bills, living expenses, and other costs while they navigate this challenging time. Your generosity will provide them with some peace of mind as Raymon faces his surgery and both work toward recovery.

Please consider donating and sharing their story with others who may be able to help. Raymon and Tami are the kind of people who would do anything for others, and now they need our help. Let’s come together to show them the love and support they so deserve.

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.
