My 20yr old brother was recently in a horrible work accident in Scranton, PA. He is currently experiencing brain swelling and bleeding, so doctors have him in an induced coma and on life-support to allow his brain to rest. Several of his facial bones were broken to the point where doctors have already predicted at least 12 facial reconstruction surgeries. If all goes well over the next few weeks, he still may need to be transferred to a hospital in Atlanta, GA to start brain rehabilitation.

As many people know, this can take a financial toll on the family. My mother, who my brother lives with in Pittsburgh, PA, had to take off of work so she (and other several family members) can be by his side through this. She drives for Greyhound and cannot afford to be several hours away if something were to happen. We are not a family that likes to ask for help, but we know that without this, my mother may lose her house, and bills will continue to pile up with no end in sight. We are driving back and forth from Pittsburgh to Scranton several times each week, living off of fast food and when he has bad nights we are sleeping in the ICU waiting room. We are not asking for help to better our situation; we require assistance to make sure that we can have a home to come back to. My mother has tried to reach out to several assistance programs, but with him currently unable to go home, she was denied for those. Our youngest brother, who is 18yrs old and a senior in high school, is still living in the home as well. We don't know when they'll be able to return home but this will help out for the next few months to make sure our mother's main focus is supporting our brother. We appreciate anything and are open to receiving information on programs that you may know of. Thank you.
