Help Ron and Leslie with Medical Expenses

Today we are raising money to help Ron Murphy. Ron was in the ICU and hospitalized for over a week after being diagnosed with severe pneumonia, covering almost his entire right lung. Thankfully he has come home, but requires medical oxygen, and has a long road of recovery ahead of him. Ron is being taken care of by his devoted partner Leslie Rotstein; they have already lost two weeks of work where they have no sick leave, and Ron will be out of work for the foreseeable future.

The money raised will be used towards any uncovered medical bills, future medical appointments, medical devices (breathing tools, etc), medications, as well as to help with lost wages for Ron, as it will likely be months before he can return to his labor-intensive job. It will also be used for bills attributed to the lost wages of his partner Leslie, who has taken weeks off of work to advocate for him in the hospital and care for him at home.

Ron - a mechanic, and Leslie - a massage therapist, have been passionate about providing free services to their community. Ron often works on cars for free to those in the sober/recovery community, and Leslie took countless massage clients free of charge after the Tree of Life shooting in order to promote healing. Let's show them that we have their backs! Any donation is greatly appreciated. They thank you from the bottom of their hearts.
