Open Heart Surgery and Help For my Father
Donation protected
I received the shocking news last week that my Dad needs urgent Open Heart surgery to replace his heart valve. He will need to schedule the surgery as soon as possible.
My Dad is 53 years young, he retired to pursue a passion for farming and now works tirelessly to provide local families; healthy, fresh, organic veggies. The surgery is going to substantially hinder the growth and ongoing success of the farm, and his wellbeing. Keep in mind that produce from the farm is his livelihood income.
Sadly, as we all know, his insurance won't cover all of the surgery. I am asking for your assistance to help pay for the surgery, as well as, provide funding to allow him to hire some help on the farm. He can only get through the season with that help, as this will allow him the needed time to recover and make it through the harsh winter in preparation for next season.
The surgery is very urgent! When my Dad asked his cardiologist if he could wait until the season was over before having the surgery, the doctors answer was simple, you need to have the surgery “Sooner than Later”! He also stated that since my Dad is already having outward symptoms, if they don't do the surgery there is only a 20% chance of survival for any length of time. But the worse thing is that there is a risk of Sudden Death at any point because the condition of his valve has deteriorated to that point.
I will be traveling soon to spend some time with Dad and to help on the farm while he is recovering. However, I am only able to stay for 1-2 weeks due to my work schedule out of state. So being able to hire someone to work the farm would be the only way to finish this season and to get ready for next season as he recovers.
My family and I would greatly appreciate the help and support for this very hard and emotional time.
Thank you and have a Blessed day.
