Pls help my Dad with medication

Donation protected
Hi , my name is Doreen and I’m doing a go fund me for my dad. Pls let me tell you about the kind of father I have. My dad is 85 and has worked hard his whole life and my whole life. My dad Don has worked at Walmart for the past 15 years at night , he retired as a maintenance engineer. But at Walmart the past 15 up until the last month and a half. My dad was not acting right the last couple months, we thought he was just tired at first but he was not right. So on this day I had to go to work so my mother and father were on their way to the hospital to get checked , on their way my mom said that he got really confused and saying really off the wall things. My mom made him pull over and she called 911. They picked them up and rushed him to the hospital. My dads blood pressure was dropping he was just out off it. The doctors ran all kinds of tests but were not sure what was happening. They admitted him right away and put him in ICU very scary my dad is my world , after so many tests and all , they come and say my dad has contracted a really bad blood infection, but did not know where it came from. His heart stopped 5 times the doctors were able to bring him back. All this time my mom is right by his side like always, she is 86 years old , they have been together 58 years. 2 very strong loving people. So the doctors said that this blood infection possibly came from his colon. My dad has to be on 2 different antibiotics daily for 8 weeks, then antibiotics for the rest of his life. I’m coming for help because the medicine is running $400 a week now we just learned. My dads bills have blown up , yes he has insurance and the $400 a week is after insurance. They send a nurse every week, the medication is delivered every week, thank God I’m able to administer the medicine for my dad or he would have gone to a nursing home and I did not want that so they taught me how to do it. This is very hard to do my dad is a proud hard working man but there comes a time where everyone needs help and this is our time. We want to thank you with all our hearts for any help. God Bless you all!!
