Donation protected
Hi guys. As some of you may know on Friday March 28th my dad went into cardiac arrest while heading to dinner with his wife. His heart stopped twice , but bystanders were able to perform CPR and bring him back. He was immediately rushed by ambulance to Venice SMH, and intubated. He has been in the ICU at the hospital for just over a week now medically sedated while they try to get fluid off his lungs, tests ran on his heart and brain, and fluids to help his kidneys. This has been a very trying time for us all, as this was completely unexpected. My dad works out 5 days a week, eats healthy , and still works full time. This of course hurts him just from being out of work this long. He has insurance but it only covers 80% of the costs. Each night in the ICU is 100k, not to mention every medicine they give him, tests they run, X-rays done every day, etc. We don’t know how long this road is going to be for him.. or what will happen. But the last thing we want is the doctor not to do everything in their power to save him because of financial reasons. My dad is a father to 3 kids, and a Papa to 9 grandkids. He means the world to so many and the last thing we want him, or his wife to worry about in this time is medical hardships. Any small amount is more than appreciated.. but most of all we ask for your prayers. God has worked miracles on my dad since the day this tragedy happened. I don’t believe he plans on stopping now. Thank you everyone so much for your support.
