I'm urgently raising money with Sharon Marsh to pay for an emergency quadruple heart bypass for her husband, Pierre.

As this is a pre-existing condition, Pierre's health insurance company won't cover any of the costs. In Panama, hospitals require payment in advance of surgery including the in-hospital recovery costs.

This ask for help is both CRITICAL and URGENT as Pierre is in Intensive Care Unit awaiting surgery.

We have all enjoyed Pierre's music--through the web and when he has played gigs in the UK and Panama. Pierre's music is his labor of love and now he needs all our help.

We have already raised $40,000 from family and friends but he needs more. The remaining balance, $44,000, is what he needs immediately to schedule this lifesaving surgery.

Thank you all and keep Pierre and Sharon in your thoughts and prayers.

Please feel free to contact Sharon via WhatsApp if you have questions.
