Medical help for Corey

Donation protected
Hi. My name is Jenn and I’m here to tell you about my friend Corey. I met Corey 4 years ago. Corey is a vibrant and friendly guy. He is someone that will always be there to lend a hand. He has a 15 year old son named Cody. Corey works at Frito-Lay as a puffing mechanic.

He’s very passionate about dirt track racing and tractor pulling. He spends every other Sunday at the Orange County Farmers Museum pulling his tractor.

On Tuesday, September 5th Corey fell ill. He was admitted to Bon Secours Hospital where he underwent surgery to amputate his toe and instep. As of this point Corey is not out of the woods. He has a very bad blood infection that is being treated with heavy antibiotics. When he does get discharged he will be on IV antibiotics at home for 6-8 weeks after. He will be having another surgery Monday, September 11th to either complete another skin graft and possibly remove more foot bones. He is not healing as well as they had projected and has a wound vac on his foot to help promote tissue growth. We are being told this won’t be the last of his surgeries. They are anticipating at least 2 months before he can walk on that foot again and possibly 6 months before recovery. But those are if the scenarios and healing start to progress. It is going to be a long road to recovery. Not only will this take a toll physically but mentally and financially as well.

It was at that point that we realized that we needed help from our community. Corey is currently out of work on short term disability. As you may know that money won’t go far. Especially with the cost of the medical bills, prescription costs, his household bills and the support for his son. We are trying to achieve him keeping his apartment as well as we know the housing market is high now. I would like to help ease some of the financial burden so that he may focus on the mental and physical portion of the healing process.

From the bottom of our hearts we humbly ask that you share this link with friends and family and if possible in giving (any amount will help).

We thank you for your support and God bless each and every one of you!!

~Jenn
