Help Wayne Overcome His Medical Challenges

This is my dad, Wayne.

All mine and my brother’s lives, he has dealt with chronic pain due to a severe workplace neck injury almost 30 years ago and a multitude of surgeries/therapy that have been consistent throughout the time since. Despite all of this, he has remained hardworking and dedicated to his family, making an effort in any way he can to be here and active, especially for his grandson.

As of November this year, he started to lose feeling in his legs. This has quickly progressed since, and has him reliant on a walker with multiple falls happening over the last few weeks. He is currently working with neurosurgeons and neurologists to determine the cause, but it is still up in the air. At this moment, they believe it could be a blockage in his spine or something more serious and neurological.

If you have met my dad, you know that he will always put others before himself, and takes pride in his ability to help wherever is needed.

As things remain unclear, We hope to use this as a chance to keep our parents' heads above water.

The goal of this fund is to provide support with any upcoming medical bills and home expenses so that our mom and dad can focus on getting him healthy and active again.

Any donation amount is appreciated, and if donating is not an option, please share this link with your friends and family.

Our dad has been through so much and we would give anything to see him recover and get back to his silly self.



Update for Wayne's condition:

In the past 30 days he's fallen 10 times. One of them he hit his head very hard and damaged his left arm. He's had multiple MRIs, XRAYS and a CT Myelogram.

He's seen 2 neurosurgeon, both of them saying that they could not see what might be causing this. In the MRI the stimulator artifacts cause shadowing blocking the view. On the CT Myelogram it blooms like a bright light blocking the views.

He's seen a Neurologist that has completed a EMG which was normal, and brain scan again normal and bloodwork=normal. The neurologist ruled out MS and ALS they could not think of anything else that might be wrong.

He decided to have the stimulator removed 2 weeks ago, they removed the staples on 3/11 now he is waiting to get another MRI of the cervical and thoracic, hopefully soon. Then he well see a neurosurgeon again and be able to see the issue (he hopes).

Thank you.
