Mike Inglisa Family Support Fund

As caring friends of Terry Inglisa, we ask for your help in raising funds to support her through the horrible tragedy of unexpectedly losing her caring husband, Mike, on Tuesday, March 12, 2024 at the age of 66. Hope you can understand the long and hard road she will face to try and make sense of her loss, and to rebuild her path forward for her teenage children, Michael and Lauren.

Mike was a unique person with an over-the-top personality and heart of gold. His love for family was limitless. His family was his whole world.

About the Incident:

In November 2023, Mike was diagnosed with congestive heart failure and, subsequently, spent the next 4 months in the University of Penn Hospital ICU. After enduring countless procedures, test, etc. and many life revitalization efforts, Mike was put into a medically induced coma, where he remained unconscious for the better part of 8 weeks. Throughout these four months, Mike needed the assistance of many life-saving options such as Echmo machine, LVAD, ventilators, kidney dialysis and a tracheostomy. Unfortunately, after putting up a valiant fight, Mike, succumbed to all the medical issues on March 12, 2024.

In addition to the immense medical expenses from the above, Terry and her family faced even more expenses with daily visitation to be with Mike. The cost of parking, tolls and fuel to visit him in Philadelphia every day add up quickly.
