After a misdiagnosis from one facility, James was brought to Upstate on Monday, 11/10/2025 after being diagnosed with an aortic dissection. He had to undergo emergency open heart surgery. He made it through and is recovering very well! But we are looking to get some help on making sure he has the equipment and funds to cover to unexpected expenses. Anything helps, and it is so appreciated! We don’t know if he will be able to return to his job after the 12 weeks, and I will have to take a lot of time off to make sure his recovery stays on track, so anything helps! Especially right before the upcoming holidays. We will make sure in the end we give back to as many as we can
