Jessie Garong Cardiac Arrest coma

Donation protected
My heart stop ... upon hearing  the saddest, worst phone call I ever received in my life that my loving, caring, selfless father Jesus "Jessie" Garong was rushed to the Emergency Room at 2:00am of July 14, 2017. Being thousands away breaks and melt my heart, this brings me tears. I rushed to fly the next day, I need to see my dad that's all my heart wanted. Seeing my father this way kills me.  He was diagnosed of S/P Cardiac Arrest with ventricular fibrillation, Respiratory failure and is in currently intubated and on a mechanical ventilator, Atrial fibrillation and Anoxic Encephalopathy. Suffered of severe brain damaged. His prognosis is very poor. He is unresponsive with minimal brain stem reflexes. He is currently fighting for his life in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) in TriCity Medical Center unrecognizable from the happy, smiling Jessie we knew.  My mom was forced to be strong for my dad while he lays in his hospital bed. This sudden incident brought us tears & pain because my dad has no major health issue only 64 years old. He is the husband of Esperanza "Cita" Garong, father of three children and grandfather to three grandkids He is the most joyful, friendliest and accomodating person you will ever meet. He is a devoted father, grandfather and husband. He loves his family so much, he connect people together. We love our dad very much  ❤️❤️❤️❤️ .  He is a loving father to most of us who knew him. We  look forward to being uplifted by that beautiful smile again soon. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️. Any help is appreciated in this time of needs, in able to concentrate on helping for his full time care. All donations go to my dad's medical expenses and to aid 24/7 care while we're unable to work. I came  all the way from Virginia and leave my family temporary to support my mom and be with my dad on this time of needs. Thank you in advance for taking the time to share our story. May God bless you all !!!
