Hi, my name is Andriy Datsenko, and I'm reaching out during one of the hardest times of my life.

Over the 4th of July weekend, what was supposed to be a fun celebration with my kids turned into a nightmare. A firework exploded unexpectedly in my hand, and I was rushed to Harborview Hospital in Seattle. Tragically, I lost my right hand up to the wrist.

I'm a proud father of three beautiful children, and up until now, I’ve been the primary provider for our family. This injury has completely changed our lives. I’m now facing a long road of recovery, medical bills, and the overwhelming uncertainty of how I’ll be able to support my family moving forward—both physically and financially.

We are doing everything we can to stay strong, but we truly need help. Funds raised will go toward medical expenses, therapy, prosthetic care, lost income, and helping keep a roof over our heads as we navigate this new reality.

Any amount—big or small—means the world to us. If you’re not able to give, sharing this campaign with others would be a huge help.

From the bottom of my heart, thank you for your support during this incredibly difficult time.

With gratitude,
 Andriy Datsenko.
