Russ Barnes - My Fearless Agitator

Donation protected

Hello, I'm Russ' daughter Kari. My father had a brain aneurysm whilst living in Mexico, last month (he was probably thinking about politics at the time). He was in a coma for a couple of weeks (probably trying to sleep through what's going on in our country) and had brain surgery to stop the aneurysm and to remove any excess blood. He is now at home with symptoms of a stroke. He is able to understand the majority of what is being said (thank God he isn't watching the news) and is getting his speech back every day (he has started to swear and tell bad jokes...so I guess that's a good sign?). He is still unable to walk or have much movement at all (that's actually too bad, he is a really good dancer). His wife Gaby has been caring for him nonstop and she is exhausted. I don't have the final numbers for medical bills, but I am thankful that they are more reasonable than in the U.S. I'm doing a gofundme to make sure that they don't lose their house during this time. There are obviously unexpected bills for prescriptions, ambulances, and physical therapists. Anything anyone can do would be appreciated more than I'll ever be able to show.
