On 12/2/2025 at 3:00 AM, I woke up with severe chest pain and went to the ER. I was immediately admitted and treated for a heart attack. During my stay, I had an echocardiogram and a heart catheterization. They found a blockage, but it could not be repaired with a stent.

I was discharged on 12/4/2025 with medications and upcoming cardiology follow-ups. I am currently between jobs and recently lost my healthcare coverage.

My preliminary hospital bill is $47,000, and this does not include room charges, nursing care, cardiology, anesthesiology, ultrasound, or other third-party physician fees. I will also have ongoing aftercare expenses.

I am applying for financial assistance and am doing everything possible to reduce the costs, but the final total is expected to be significantly higher.

Any support toward these medical expenses is deeply appreciated.

For my Classmates and Hometown residents of Medina, NY. Thank You for all you do to provide Sigma IV Infusion Pumps for lifesaving emergencies, such as mine. I am blown away with emotion, knowing classmates, friends, friends of friends, and many more, likely held these pumps in their hands during manufacturing.

Thank you.
