Stand by Jeremy During His Recovery

Donation protected
As some of you may know, Jeremy Herbin "Flight" was admitted to the hospital through the Emergency Department on the morning of May 5th. He had been experiencing shortness of breath the week prior, which we thought was just the high pollen causing his asthma to act up. He also was having pain in his right calf. At first, we thought it was a cramp. Over the next two days, his leg, ankle, and foot were swollen to the point he couldn't walk.

He was urged to go the emergency room to get checked out instead of waiting to go to his primary at the end of the week and boy are we all thankful that he decided to go. Within the hour of checking in, he had an EKG, Ultrasound on his leg and CT scan of his chest. The results were in. DVT and pulmonary embolism (Blood clot in his leg and several bold clots in BOTH lungs).

He was immediately put on a Heparin drip to thin the blood and stayed on this for the next 6 days. With his shortness of breath and oxygen dropping as low as 93, the doctors made the decision that surgery would be the best option with the quickest results. On Friday May 9th, Jeremy received a Pulmonary thrombectomy to suck out the clots in his lungs through a main artery in his groin.

We are all so thankful his surgery went excellent and is showing so much improvement. All by the grace of God!

Jeremy is loved by many. His spirit is always high, and his smile is contagious. he is a hard worker who works 2 jobs and most times its 7 days a week. I am asking firstly, that everyone continue to pray for his healing and recovery. Secondly, if you have it in your heart, and the means to do so, please consider donating. As of today, Jeremy has missed a full week of work from both jobs and will miss the next few while he recovers. No one expects medical emergencies to happen and sometimes, we aren't prepared. This is one of those times. Jeremy doesn't have any short-term disability to help cover bills nor does he have any accidental policy.

Thank you for taking the time to read this! Have a blessed day!
