I Was Involved in an Incident that Left Me Severely Injured and I will be unable to work for months.

Updated 03.26.2025

One moment, I was working. The next, I was on the ground in excruciating pain. I was involved in an incident where I fell off a ladder and severely injured myself. I broke my pelvis in two places, three vertebrae, two ribs, and my thumb. I spent over 30 days in the hospital and another 30 in a care facility, I am home now and using a walker. I am so happy to be in my own home, but I need your help. I was told yesterday it will be 6 more weeks before I will be stable enough to get around on my own.

As a self-employed roof inspector, I rely on my ability to move and climb ladders. But now, I can’t work. My two sons, both certified roof inspectors, are doing their best to fill in, but they’re also students with other jobs.

Medical bills are piling up fast, and on top of that, I still have to cover my mortgage, utilities, and daily expenses. I’m reaching out because I urgently need help to cover medical costs, lost income, and basic living expenses.

I thank God I will walk again, but the road to recovery is long. If you can donate even a small amount, it would mean everything to me. And if you can’t, please share my story to help spread the word.

Thank you for your kindness and support.
