Support for Charlie Sallee's Unexpected Funeral
Donation protected
Hi! My name is Brittany Swinford and I’m making this for my family as we need help to pay for my daddy’s unexpected funeral. Early Tuesday morning (6/25), my dad (Charlie Sallee) was taken by ambulance to Mercy Hospital with severe abdominal pain that was found to be caused by a blood clot in his abdomen. He was then flown to Mercy South in St. Louis for emergency surgery to remove the clot and put a stint in to help prevent any further clots.
His small intestine looked damaged so the surgeons left him intubated and sedated to rest and would do another surgery the following day (6/26) to check on the intestine again before cleaning everything up and closing. When they checked, his small intestine was damaged beyond repair and said there was nothing left to do but keep him comfortable. He passed away Thursday (6/27) @1:49 am surrounded by family.
With this being so sudden and unexpected, our family does not have the funds for his funeral arrangements and we are in dire need of help! Whatever you can donate would be so appreciated and if you are not able to donate, please just keep us in your prayers! If you knew my daddy, you know he’d have given the shirt off of his back for anyone in need. We thank you all in advance. ❤️
