Hello everyone!

My name is Justin Johns Sr and that's my son Justin Jr in the picture with me.
He's 24yrs old and in the past couple years I have watched him grow and mature into a fine young man that I am very proud of. He has a fiance
and 5yr old step daughter that he has been raising for the past 4yrs that he absolutely adores. He works on cell phone towers and is a very hard worker. He was recently promoted to foreman of his crew after working his way up from the bottom.
Over the past year he's been having some health issues that have been progressively getting worse. What originally was looking like it may just be anxiety has progressed into severe pressure in his head, seizures and fainting (while 400 ft in the air working on cell phone towers).
After 1 E.R. and several Urgent Care visits turned up nothing and things just keep getting worse and more frequent, we finally got him into a Neurologist office this week and they did bloodwork and lots of other tests. We were supposed to hear from the Dr in a week or so about his labs and moving forward with an MRI.. In less than 24hrs the Dr called him and said a lot of his bloodwork is off the charts and we need to get the MRI done as soon as possible so we can move forward.
I reached out to our health insurance advisor to find out if these type of procedures go against our out of pocket deductible and they do, which we are roughly $3800 away from meeting, (which means, until we spend another $3800 they will not cover ANYTHING other than regular office visits). We are not able to cover this financially right now due to several other issues that have come up recently and the Dr made it very clear that time is if the essence so as much as I hate to immediately run asking for charity, the only thing that matters is getting the ball rolling and getting this MRI paid for and done so we know what we're really up against.

At this point the Dr seems to be leaning towards him being Epileptic but again, we cannot move forward without the MRI so I'm here asking anyone who can and has it in their hearts to please help us take the 1st step in getting him well.

We got the MRI done last week and he had an appointment scheduled with Neurologist this coming Thurs but last night he fainted again so we rushed him to the Emergency Room at his Dr's orders and within an hour of getting a room he fell asleep and immediately went into a seizure and was admitted. He will be there for at least a few days while 2 more MRI's are done as well as a multitude off other tests and hopefully we get somewhere. They have mentioned "signs of a stroke" and possibly a hole in his heart.... our insurance is not covering any of this until we pay another roughly $3500 out of pocket and then they will take over so I have adjusted the goal of our Gofundme accordingly. Even if all you can do is share our fundraiser with your friends and family we would be truly grateful and to anyone that has already donated, my family thanks you from the bottom of our hearts.

I hope that every single person that reads this, as well as their family, is blessed in every way and I sincerely thank you for at least reading this far.
