One tough ass father!!!

Donation protected
hiii everyone my name is raven and i just want to give everyone a little back story about everything that has gone on with my step father starting back about 7 years ago when my mother was pregnant with my little brother liam.  Billy(my step father) was going down the stairs in our basement around 2 in the morning when he fell down them and cracked his skull open which moved a disc on his spine.  My mother was sleeping and doesn’t know how long he was down there before she heard him yelling for her and my mother is almost blind so she couldn’t see what was going on until she was almost face to face with what looked like a massacre.  It was so bad the paramedics didn’t think he would survive it, but he did.  The amazing doctors were able to fix the disc in his spine so he didn’t remain paralyzed and stapled his  head back together.  Even though he survived that, his body has never been the same.  He wakes up shaking every day because of little blood clots under his scar pushing on his brain, and that is when he is able to sleep.  He is a steam fitter in new york which takes a toll on his body like you wouldn’t believe and while he is doing that my mother has had her hands full the past 7 years taking care of my brother who has autism.  For about a year now my step father has been getting blood clots in his legs which has required multiple surgeries putting him out of work and has been putting a strain on my family paying there bills, but he is the type of guy that you would never know because he is always making sure everyone around him is secure whether it be asking if i have enough gas in my car, asking if i need extra cash, or food even when he doesn’t have money for that.  He will be undergoing another surgery on his leg to avoid it being amputated where they will reroute one of his veins higher up to prevent it from clotting.  This will have him out of work for months and my family would really appreciate any donations anyone could help us with so that they can pay their bills while he is out of work and any medical bills that will come their way.  I love my step father to death and any little bit will go along way!!! If you can help we would all appreciate it so much
