Save my brother-in-law from covid and stroke
This campaign is about my brother-in-law, Claudiu Chirita, 46 years old. He lives in Bucharest, Romania. On October 21st he found out he was COVID-19 positive. After 8 days of symptoms (fever and cough), he also had a stroke, which affected his ability to move his right arm and leg, as well as his speech. His family was asymptomatic. However, the main reason of the stroke was his fear of exposing his family to the virus, especially his 8 year old son, who has a higher risk due to his Down Syndrome condition. He also has a 16 year old daughter in High School. They both need his father more than ever. He has always been an example in the family to follow and a caring and loving father.
At this moment, he is stable and is showing 95% saturation in his lungs. His blood pressure and heart are good. However, he will need Kineto Therapy and Speech Therapy for the coming months. The next six months are extremely important regarding his ability to move the right side of the body. As for his speech recovery, the doctors said he has two years to regain such ability. Since time plays an important role in his rehabilitation and the cost of it is high, even in Romania (100$/day for at least two years), me and my wife have decided to do our best and help in his recovery process by creating this campaign and spread his story as far as possible. Any donation can have a huge impact in his life and his full recovery.
