Nick's Medical Emergency Fund
Donation protected
Hi everyone. Danielle and I are organizing this fundraiser on behalf of our best friends, Nick and Chelsea Rogers and their son Troy.
On Tuesday September 19th Nick came home from work with a headache and decided to lay down. Chelsea got home from work a short time later to find Nick Unresponsive having a seizure. Medics were called and he was rushed to Forbes where he eventually regained consciousness. Unfortunately, he ended up having another seizure while in the ER and was rushed into a CT where they discovered a large brain bleed. He was transferred by helicopter to UPMC Presbyterian, diagnosed with a Ruptured Brain Aneurysm, and underwent multiple procedures including surgery to remove part of his skull for the time being. The whole family has been so strong over the last 24 hours, but this will be a very long fight, leaving both Nick and Chelsea out of work for an extended period.
Additionally, Nick does not have medical insurance through his longtime employer, or personally.
We are asking for any donations to help them in this extreme time of need, so that Nick, Chelsea and Troy can all be focused on his recovery.
Please also keep the entire family in your prayers, they are still very much needed. If you would rather donate directly, please reach out and we can facilitate that. Additional fundraising will be forthcoming.
Please refrain from reaching out directly to Chelsea or the immediate family at this time, we will share updates here or you can reach out to either of us with questions.
With love,
Day Day and Z ♡ (Nick's names for us)
