On December 18th, James was taken by ambulance to Sonora Regional Medical Center with a splitting headache, dizziness, and vomiting. The doctors determined that he had a brain bleed caused by a possible stroke. Because we are such a small town, he had to be mediflighted to Doctor's Medical Center in Modesto to see a neurosurgeon. Since then, he has had a CAT Scan, Cerebral Angiogram, and is about to have an MRI. The doctors know there is a bleed but have not found the cause yet. If the MRI doesn't show us the problem, he will have to stay in the hospital for at least another week to have a 2nd Angiogram. 

Please consider donating to help cover James' medical expenses. He is a much-loved father of 4 and middle school teacher for overyears. He suffered a minor heart attack less than a year ago and has just finished paying off his ambulance bill. All donations will go towards his new ambulance bill, the mediflight bill, any hospital expenses, and general monthly expenses that need to be covered for however long he's unable to work. Anything you can contribute will help ease his recovery stress. Thank you in advance, and God bless.
