Support Dustin's Medical Journey and Family

Hi, my name is Dustin, I’m 29 years old and live in Marinette, WI. My girlfriend and I have 4 children ages 12, 5, 3, and 3 months. I recently found out I need to have two very large surgeries on my skull. I'm trying to raise money to help pay medical bills and transportation to and from Milwaukee for treatment. I've had recurring problems with my ears for many years, they treated me in marinette with antibiotics for infection but the problem always came back. One night I went to the ER for bleeding from my ears and further tests found that I have a mass behind one ear and the bones behind my eardrum have deteriorated along with partial of my skull. The doctors here will not touch it and have referred me to a doctor in Milwaukee. The first surgery will be to find out what the mass is, remove it, and clean up the infection. The second surgery will be to rebuild my skull and bones behind my ears. I will never get hearing back in that ear and may still have balance issues even after these procedures. I fall many times a day because of the balance issue and can’t feel when it’s going to happen. I am unable to work, drive, or stand with my 3 month old. My girlfriend works weekends so family can help with the baby. If anyone can help with expenses for driving back and forth to Milwaukee and other expenses due to my illness, our family would really appreciate the help.
