Support Justin Smyers' Medical Recovery
Donation protected



Hi, my name is Kolby Johnson, and I’m raising funds to support Justin Smyers, who has recently and unexpectedly had a medical emergency. Justin is facing a tough battle ahead, and we need your help to cover the overwhelming medical costs and provide the care he desperately need.
The Story:
Justin is 28 years old and for anyone who knows him they know he is the most kind, caring, hardworking, determined, strong-willed, hilarious, generous, and all-around loving human being. Unfortunately, he recently received a life-changing diagnosis in which he suffered multiple seizures, leading to a stroke due to a heart defect that was undiagnosed. He was placed in a medically induced coma and on a ventilator for a week. This diagnosis has been devastating for our family, both emotionally and financially.
Justin has come down from sedation and the ventilator has been removed. He is making progress with his recovery but has a very intense rehab journey ahead. With ongoing multidisciplinary therapies and limited ability to drive or work, it has put our family in a situation with overwhelming financial burden.
Why We Need Your Help:
Despite insurance coverage, there are still significant out-of-pocket expenses for medications, follow-up treatments, ongoing therapies, and his hospital stay. His hospital stay has a total billed amount of 255,000 dollars. These costs are quickly becoming more than we can bear alone, and that’s why we’re reaching out to you for help.
Here’s how the funds will be used:
• Medical bills for treatments, therapies, and his hospital stay.
• Medications and other necessary medical supplies
• Travel expenses to and from specialized medical centers
• Living expenses as Justin is unable to work during this time
• Any additional costs related to specific needs like in-home care, rehab, supplies, meals, etc.
How You Can Help:
1. Donate: Any amount, big or small, will make a significant difference.
2. Share: If you’re unable to donate, sharing this page with your network will help spread the word and bring in much-needed support.
3. Offer Support: Your kind words, thoughts, and prayers mean the world to Justin and his family during this difficult time.
With your generous contributions, Justin Smyers will be able to focus on what really matters- getting stronger and healing. Your donation will help relieve the financial burden, allowing our family to concentrate on Justin’s health and well-being.
From the bottom of our hearts, we thank you for taking the time to read our story. Your support, whether through donations, sharing this campaign, or sending words of encouragement, will mean more to us than you’ll ever know.
Let’s rally together to give Justin the best chance at recovery. Thank you so much for your kindness and generosity.
Donate today and help Justin Smyers fight on his recovery journey!
With gratitude,
Justin Smyers, Kolby Johnson, and The Smyers Family
