Eric's Medical Bills
Donation protected
Hi everyone,
Thank you for taking the time to read this. As some of you may know, my brother Eric was in a horrific motorcycle accident in early July. The person at fault made an illegal U-turn, causing him to collide with the front of her SUV at a high rate of speed. He suffered multiple injuries and was rushed from the scene of the accident via ambulance to the ICU, and was almost immediately operated on. He is suffering from a broken leg/knee in 2 places, a broken pelvis in 4 places, and unsavory flesh wounds related to the pelvic trauma (too graphic to name the exact injuries), amongst many cuts and bruises. Thankfully, it was not life threatening, as his helmet protected him. His neck, head and spine were miraculously undamaged.
However, as you can imagine, he's in a great deal of pain both mentally and physically, while staying as positive and strong as possible. He's a true fighter! But unfortunately, we learned that the person at fault for the accident is uninsured, and while Eric has health insurance, there's still a a great deal that he'll have to pay out of pocket for his medical bills and physical therapy.
I haven't tagged him on social media, as he was hesitant and nervous about asking for help financially, given the hardships of Covid-19. I too, realize that this is a difficult time for many people, and want to make sure it's known that we so appreciate you taking the time to read this, and while many of you are very understandably unable to give financially, a share on social media of this "campaign" and any prayers or good thoughts are so incredibly treasured and truly valued.
I wish like crazy that I had the financial means to cover these bills for him, alas I do not, and so I'm here, asking for your help, in whatever way you can. He has a long road to recovery ahead of him, and the last thing I want for him is to have to stress over or carry the weight of medical bills, in this truly unfair situation.
We're not entirely sure what the total of expenses will be, but have estimated so far, and I'll be sure to update with any new information. Please feel free to reach out to me personally with any questions or concerns, I can't express enough my gratitude to you for your consideration and time. I wish you all good health both physically and mentally during this incredibly strange time, please be kind to others and yourself. As I ask for help, please know that I am also here for you, regardless of the campaign. Reach out anytime. Sending love to each of you.
