Help Support Jeff after his Quad Bypass!
Donation protected
2 years ago, my dad had a heart attack and was told he would not live more than a year. At the time, he was not physically or mentally able to go through with any type of heart procedure. This year, he decided he was ready and wanted to do what he could for his grandkids, my siblings, and myself to continue our family traditions and watch us live our lives and grow. He went in on February 19th to have stents put in. They then found that his arteries to his heart were too blocked for stents. On February 21st, they went ahead and performed a quad bypass, which went smoothly. He was in the hospital for almost 2 weeks before being sent to rehab to help him with his walking and regaining strength back in his lungs. He did have to take a trip to the ER recently for water buildup in his legs, which has temporarily set his release date back yet again.
At this time, his 2 weeks of PTO has now run out from work, and he was not able to secure FMLA or short-term disability to help cover himself. At this point in time, he does not have the funds to cover his upcoming bills for the rest of February and into March.
If you are able to help, we would greatly appreciate it as he's unsure what life will be like once he is out between balancing his new life after heart surgery and if he'll still have the ability to work at his current job (right now, he's on oxygen when he is having a full conversation), and to have one less thing to stress about is what he needs right now.
