Help for the Marks family

Hi this is Sterling and Emily Marks. Sterling contracted Covid in late September 2023 and never fully recovered. What started as extreme fatigue and nausea, turned into full body tremors that sometimes affect his speech. Sterling is able to do limited activities, but is easily worn out after 10-15 minutes of physical or mental activity. We have been working with his primary care physician, Covid care specialist, neurologist, Chinese medicine practitioner, occupational therapist, and speech therapist to get treatment. Sterling hasn’t worked since late September and has tried to get unemployment, but is not eligible due to his health restrictions. We are working on disability but it may take a year or more to approve. We also put our house in forbearance to help get temporary relief. We are looking to use funds raised to pay medical expenses and daily bills since Emily’s paycheck doesn’t cover everything and our savings is now tapped out. We have a Caring Bridge site for updates on Sterlings health and more information. We thank you for your love and support.
