Support for Pavel and Jenn
Dear Friends,
Ten days ago, Pavel severely shattered his right tibia bone which required emergency surgery and 5 days in the hospital. He is currently on bed rest at home preparing for his second surgery scheduled for tomorrow with potentially several more surgeries on the horizon.
Pavel is in constant pain especially when he needs to move which he is not able to do on his own. The only things he can do by himself are to eat and drink. Everything else he needs help with; sitting up, laying down, brushing his teeth; etc. Even small movements refer agonizing pain in his injured leg. Because of this Jenn is his legs, and his everything for now. She can't leave the house because if his leg were to somehow get "off" in it's positioning he would be in excruciating pain. She needs to be close to him 24/7. Therefore, caring for Pavel is now Jenn's full time job.
While Jenn may be able to return to income work sooner, it is estimated that Pavel will not be able get back to work for perhaps several months. Obviously, this creates a financial burden on many fronts. That being said, they will be dependent on community support in order to manage the expenses during and after the recovery process. Please consider donating whatever you possible can as each little bit adds up. Also, please send healing thoughts and love to Jenn and Pavel during this challenging time. Much gratitude to you all!
