Sending Big Hern back home

So for those of you who know me know that I am not one for asking for handouts and I work sometimes seven days a week. So this isn't easy for me. But I've been told from friends and loved ones that this might be a good option for me ..sooo here goes.
About 8 or so months ago I began to notice my bellybutton was transforming from an innie to an outie. But I didn't worry to much about it. Figured I was just getting older and that's what happens to old dudes bellies. Until it started to become more pronounced and I knew I had a umbilical hernia. Which I lovingly named "Big Hern". I am still not in pain but it isn't getting any smaller and with the work that I do (all of which requires heavy lifting) I figured I better get it fixed sooner than later. I don't go to the doctor much and am a relatively healthy and active guy and would like to stay that way for myself and my wife and 2 boys. Only problem is the surgery with pretty decent insurance is $3500 and it will also put me out of work for 6 weeks. That's 6 weeks no pay. Bills will also be knocking at my door. So if you can find it in your heart to kick down for the cause you are loved and appreciated.... if you just want to share and pass this link around we love you for that too:) It will be for cost of surgery and a month and a half worth of food, gas and bills. Lets send "Big Hern" back in the belly where belongs:)
Thanks for anything and everything. Big love to all my people.
P.s. Brit wouldn't let me use this as my main picture but here's "Big Hern" with googly eyes and mustache. Enjoy.
