Open Heart Surgery On A True Angel

Hello There,

I am here to not beg for anything or make anyone feel bad for my father, George. But the man my family and I thought was invincible is in a VERY critical health crisis and will require an Open Heart Surgery in the coming days, Which will require more nights of hotel stays and Travel. My father is so scared not to be able to front the total cost of the surgery on top of every other fear that accompanies this, Even though he does have Medical insurance and is a Purple Heart Recipient of the Vietnam War who receives minimal compensation from the VA. My father is one of the most kind, compassionate, honest humans a person could encounter. Which has probably helped his health crisis get so severe. He keeps his pain and suffering inside to protect those around him and keep others from worrying. Because of this trait, He has brought upon himself Renal failure, which allowed his body to harbor far too many fluids- in turn putting his other organs in dire need of help. However, the whole crisis comes from a Severe case of Aortic Stenosis and a newfound nearly complete blockage of the LAD Artery. He needs this surgery immediately, But won't receive it until the Team of Dr.'s can ensure his kidneys, liver, body, and soul are strong enough to tolerate it. Hence the extended hospital stay and the need for excess travel and hotel expenses for our family. He's scared, and he's proud, And he would never ask for anything, But this time he is going to need help. Today I asked him why he hasn't expressed his pain and asked for help, and he the proud American veteran He has always been replied "No mission too difficult, no sacrifice too great— Duty First!” (Moto of the Big Red One-Army's 1st Infantry Div.)

If you cant spare a donation, please help him with prayer and love...He desperately needs it, and he deserves it. In closing, I ask that after you read this, you pick up the phone or hop in your vehicle and give your father the biggest, most loving hug you possibly can. To often we take advantage of the days we are given, so assured tomorrow is coming, and you'll have another chance. When in fact today should be thought of as the last chance. Thank you for thinking of my Father and my family. God bless.
