My wife and I are facing some of the hardest times of our lives. I have multiple health issues, including lung disease that leaves my lungs working at only 50%, diabetes, severe neuropathy in my feet, vascular disease in my legs, and a pinched nerve in my neck. I also have nine bulging discs in my back, frequent migraines, and torn ligaments and tendons in both shoulders. On top of all this, I have diabetes in my eyes and am slowly losing my vision. My wife is disabled with M.S., and together we are struggling to keep up with the challenges life has thrown our way.

Over the past year, I have had several surgeries and procedures, with more on the horizon. The medical bills are piling up, and I have fallen behind on all of our bills. My car broke down and will cost around a thousand dollars to fix, which is money we just don't have. I need new glasses, but insurance won't pay for the frames. My wife needs all of her teeth pulled and dentures, but we can't afford the dental work she needs to avoid constant infections. I haven't been able to work since 2024, and the debts keep growing.

The funds from this fundraiser will help us pay our medical bills so I can continue getting the care I need, fix our car so I can get to my appointments safely, and get my wife the dentures she needs to stay healthy. Any kind of donation will help get us closer to stability. We all need to stick together and help each other try to make it in this world. I really appreciate anything and everything that you can do for me and us. Thank you for your support.
