UPDATE: Human kindness prevails!
Thank you to all who reached out to help Patrick with his medical crisis. Your support, comfort, care, and kindness exceeded all expectation.
Our band of Patrick friends is heart-lifting, soul satisfying and an amazing reflection of the power one united to many.
We did 'something' together! Hurray!
Willow Glen friends are collectively taking this opportunity to apprise you that our treasured friend Patrick McCluskey is facing a crisis. Termination from his 30-year position at Guckenheimer (with only 2-week severance in lieu of notice!) allowed Patrick only 4 days to select alternate health insurance. The timing of the unfortunate events has created a wellness crisis during this Covid pandemic.
Patrick is an award-winning Catering Guru. Patrick’s energy, exemplary customer service and the fun he brings to each event are well known throughout Guckenheimer, Cadence and his 32-year home community of Willow Glen, California.
Patrick is presently under constant medical treatment as he is battling an unknown autoimmune diagnosis. Patrick has been hospitalized twice in the past 12 months. He requires daily life sustaining pharmaceutical therapy to stay in good health.
THE HARD FACTS
Monthly income:
$1,564 Unemployment Insurance available through December
Monthly housing and health insurance expenses:
$553 Cobra Health Insurance
$1400 Housing
Even BEFORE food, transportation, utilities, medical deductibles and co-pays, the deficit is <$389> EVERY MONTH!!!! And once unemployment runs out, the situation becomes untenable.
Patrick needs our shared and cherished friendship to act.
Action channeled through a Go Fund Me can assist Patrick with the most basic of human rights - a home and vital health care.
We often say to ourselves; “If only I could do something.” Let’s do something together.
