Stand by Justin Pickering and His Family needs help

Update Dec 13th

With the holidays here our home is no longer festive. Emotionally we barely got through Thanksgiving and now Christmas is coming up. Being a single mother I am trying my best. Medical bills and collections hang heavy over our heads. I am trying my best to hold all of it together, however I still need help. Anything will help.

Updated August 28th

My soul is so lost and tired

We had his viewing on August 21st and I brought him home on Aug 23rd (cremated). I have kept him close to me. I'm scared to have him out of my sight. The bills are starting to come in and pile up from all his medical bills. He was my best friend and a hero from being a donor so that some other family might be saved the pain that our family is going through. Our family needs your help more than ever. Please.

Update August 7,

My heart is braking right now. Despite all efforts Justin’s condition is just not fixable. The damage was to severe. He is a donor and will be having his honor walk on Sunday at 10am. Please pray, send good vibes and support if you can help. Any and all help is greatly appreciated.

Our family is in desperate need of financial help and prayers. On Friday, August 2, my husband, Justin Pickering, woke up with a numb arm. He thought he had just laid on it wrong. After trying to get up, he realized his leg was numb as well. He tried to walk it off, but ended up falling. We called 911, and he had stopped breathing as they loaded him into the ambulance. The first responders acted quickly and were able to intubate and got Justin to the hospital where they explained that he had a massive brain bleed and we needed to prepare for the worst. The next CT scan showed his brain was swelling, and they had to rush him up to surgery right away. He has defeated all odds and is still with us but has an incredibly long hard road ahead of us. Justin is only 46.

We currently don’t have insurance but the hospital is working on that now. We have 3 beautiful children and expenses are already piling up, as I am currently unable to work. I’m not doing good mentally and I can’t leave his side. I’ve been through this once before when my first husband had cancer. Justin came into our lives and he opened our hearts again. He made us want to love again after we had been traumatized and broken from the loss. He helped us navigate and become a whole family again. I was closed off, shut down to loving. Justin came into our lives and showed us what love was again. He showed me what friendship and partnership was. We fell in love.

I need help to stay by his side and to keep up with everyday bills as well as the new that just keep piling up.
