Support for a Father of Two After Tragic Shooting
...DON'T TAKE LIFE FOR GRANTED BECAUSE ANYTHING CAN HAPPEN... Last week, on the evening of Sept 7th, I was riding my motorcycle home for the day when I got shot 4 times in a matter of a few seconds (1 in the neck, 3 in the thigh and knee). I didn't understand what was happening at first, but when it hit me, I did what anyone else would have done and tried to get to cover! But i couldnt move fast enough.. My right arm was useless, not allowing me to pull myself up off the road, and my left leg was in an excruciating amount of pain, now burning, so it was also useless. I didn't know exactly where from or how many times I got hit yet who it was that would of been trying to kill me or even a better question, WHY!?.. Scariest moment in my life right there, really makes you look at it through a totally diffrent perspective. I pray that no one has to ever experience anything like this..
I am a father of two beautiful boys under the age of 2 and a partner to a beautiful woman who truly deserves the world. We are constantly busy from morning to night every single day trying to stay ahead just to make ends meet but are constantly falling behind somewhere with something, now between the hospital bills already showing up in the mail and getting notified yesterday that we're getting evicted due to our tenant not paying our share of the owed rent for the last 4 months, this has put a huge, huge wedge on the flow of our everyday sanity and well-being, now as if it wasnt tampered enough. Not only do the boys not understand what has happened to me with knowing that I was just millimeters away from creating a widowed princess, but I couldn't fathom what it would be like without the 3 most important people in my life, my everyday existence.
We are fundraising to help cover medical expenses and support our family during this difficult time.
