Help with Kerry's medical bills and transfer

Donation protected
Some know but many don’t, while in Florida on vacation, my brother, Kerry Dehoff, fell and hit his head. We’re unsure what he hit or where he fell at due to him falling while everyone else was asleep. Around 3am, his MIL found him in the floor crawling around, disoriented, throwing up, etc. Dr's say he had to of fell flat on his face without bracing himself because of how serious the injuries are. Kerry has a corpus callosum brain injury, 2 skulls fractures to right side of head and 1 to his face on right side. He has a hematoma to his right frontal lobe and brain bleed to his left frontal lobe. His brain is swollen but the bleed is stable. He is up walking but has some issues with his right leg and therapy isn’t sure if it’s due to his brain or if he might have hurt it during fall. His speech is very slurred and at times it sounds ok and other times it’s hard to understand him. He’s very confused which is causing him to be agitated. He doesn’t remember anything and doesn’t understand he has brain injury and just wants to leave hospital. He’s been at Bay Medical in Panama City since Monday.

Today his kids and wife had to go home and Kerry is left in PCB all alone as the Dr's say he isn’t ready to come home and needs placement at rehab hospital for therapy...However, Kerry doesn’t have any health insurance so its hard to find somewhere to accept him. It’s going to be a long road but hopefully once swelling goes down he will be back to his old self.

We're asking for all prayers. And any donations, big and small are greatly appreciated and will be used towards Kerry's medical bills and possibly trying to get Kerry transferred. It will also help with the offset of income for Kerry's family since he will be out of work for a quite while.
