Help Bring Joe Home
My dad is a friendly guy and has friends everywhere!! We cannot go anywhere without him knowing someone and him stopping to talk and wishing people well. He has the biggest heart of anyone I know. He is a Marine Vet and he was a board member of the soccer community in Grand Terrace City as my little brother loves to play soccer. He loves his job working for the county of San Bernardino making a difference
Joe Started feeling sick July 3rd and went into the drs on July 4th.. he was diagnosed with COVID-19 on July 5th then released back home to quarantine July 6th. After being sent home from the doctors, he was at home living in an RV recovering. His symptoms persisted and he started to become worrisome. He mentioned to my mom that he felt really weak and that he couldn’t breathe. He tried to lay down with oxygen but his levels wouldn’t rise. Ambulance was called and took him to the hospital. He has been in the hospital since July 12. He went from being semi okay to complete not okay. He had to be put on ventilator in the ICU July 13th where he still remains today due to his lungs completely failing. He has had some positive steps forward but also a few steps backwards.
Since joe is in the hospital, he will be receiving disability. It covers 40% of his income earnings. In order to continue treatment for my dad he will need to continue payments to his health benefits from work which are $553.00 every paycheck!! This will leave my mother who is currently on a suppressed income as well struggle VERY bad with bills AND making sure that his payments dont stop so he can continue to get the care he needs.
Joe is missed by so many people.. especially his grand kids. We need to bring joe home.
please if you have anything to donate to make sure we continue to pay his medical insurance to allow him time to recover. Even if you have a job or something you may need done!
god bless you all ♥️
