Support Ernest’s Recovery from Severe Nerve Damage

Donation protected
Hello,My dad’s life changed unexpectedly after undergoing a bone marrow procedure that resulted in significant nerve damage. What was supposed to help him instead left him dealing with chronic pain, physical limitations, and the inability to work. This has been incredibly difficult for him—not only physically, but emotionally and financially.
Because of the nerve damage, he is currently unable to earn an income. At the same time, medical bills continue to grow, along with everyday living expenses like housing, utilities, food, and transportation. The financial strain has become overwhelming, and it’s a burden he never imagined he would face.
He has always been hardworking and independent, and asking for help does not come easily. But right now, support is truly needed to help him cover medical costs and basic living expenses while he focuses on healing and navigating his recovery.
Any help—whether financial support, sharing this message, or simply keeping him in your thoughts—means more than words can express. Thank you for taking the time to read his story and for any kindness you’re able to offer.-Marissa

(From my dad)
Hello everyone,
I’m reaching out because I’m currently facing a tremendously difficult time. After a medical procedure, I developed severe lumbar radiculopathy and nerve damage, which has drastically impacted my ability to walk and perform daily tasks.
Walking has become painful and difficult, as my leg often gives out, making even simple movements a challenge. This condition has forced me out of work, leaving me without income or state disability support.
The financial strain is immense, and I’m in urgent need of help to cover essential medications and basic living expenses.
This situation resulted from negligence during the procedure, and while I’m focusing on recovery, I need your support to get through this challenging period.
Any assistance, whether through a donation or sharing my story, would mean the world to me.
Thank you for your compassion and support during this difficult time.
With sincere gratitude,
Ernest
