Support Jody's Recovery After Tragic Accident

Donation protected
My name is Patrick Wacks, and today I received devastating news.

My close friend, Jody Myers, was in a horrific accident this week while on the job. Jody is a hardworking father of three and runs his family’s pool water delivery business. During what should have been a routine delivery, his truck flipped and rolled three times. The vehicle was mangled, and Jody was trapped inside, needing to be pulled out with the Jaws of Life.

Miraculously, he survived. But he suffered a broken back and six broken ribs. He’s now in an out-of-state hospital in New York, where he travels each summer to work and provide for his family.

Jody and I have worked together in the past, and I’ve had the privilege of knowing him for over 10 years. He’s not just a friend — he’s someone I deeply respect for his work ethic, his loyalty, and his heart for others.

What makes this even harder is that Jody doesn’t have health insurance, and he’s facing a long and painful recovery — far from home, unable to work, and separated from his wife and three children. As a small business owner, every missed day means lost income his family depends on.

I'm asking you to please join me in helping Jody and his family through this overwhelming time. Every single dollar matters. Your support will go directly toward his medical care, recovery, and keeping his family afloat while he heals.

Thank you for your prayers, your kindness, and your generosity.

– Patrick
