Help Rocky, Tony, and Family

Donation protected
My name is Jourdan and I have created this GoFundMe for my friends Rocky and Tony who are currently in an extraordinarily difficult situation. Firstly, I know there are so many things in the world that need attention, support, and funding so thank you in advance for reading this, donating, sharing, or just holding a good thought.
Tony is currently in the hospital. He was admitted two days ago for internal bleeding, has had multiple blood transfusions, and is still undergoing diagnostic procedures. It is currently not clear what the cause is, when he will be out of the hospital, or what the potential expenses will be. Tony is obviously not able to work right now, and we don't know what the next few days or weeks will hold for him and his recovery. Money was tight before Tony was admitted, and Rocky continues to work while trying to navigate the incredible stress of caring for a gravely ill partner.
Additionally, Rocky and Tony have two amazing dogs who have both needed vet care in the last few weeks, the costs of which have been unexpectedly large. A tumor was found on Tumbleweed's lower jaw. Foo suffers from seizures and also will need to have a growth removed from her right eye. Foo and Tumbleweed are both older dogs with special needs and having them require extensive vet care just a few weeks before Tony became ill has proved to be an unanticipated challenge.
And finally, Rocky's car was recently damaged by a driver while parked outside of their work. Insurance is not paying for the bulk of the repairs and they have been charged $3,000 for the damages out of pocket. This car is essential for Rocky to remain employed.
Putting something away for a rainy day only works when it doesn't pour for weeks on end. Because there have been so many unforeseen critical situations all at once, they find themselves in a potentially catastrophic situation. Today I am asking for $10,000 to cover the cost of rent, car repair, and medical expenses that may go beyond what is covered for the family (human and animal alike). Just one of these situations could be life-altering, but having them all at once is debilitating. Please help support our friends through this. I will be making periodic updates on Tony's health and how everyone is doing. The money will all go directly to Rocky and Tony. Thank you.
