Taylor Beeman Icu level one trauma

Hi my name is Dennis , father of Taylor Beeman and I am fund raising for Taylor and his wife Lacey and his daughter Sierra. After 3 trios to the er, Taylor was finally admitted and testing started. He was first told he had strep, but further testing showed sepsis infection and it didn't let him eat or drink leaving him weak and malnourished. He last went in Monday by ambulance and was finally addmited. He is in critical care icu, he agreed to being intubated and now is on dialysis and Ecmo to handle his heart function and breathing as well. He is in a induced coma to help keep him still. There are extenuating circumstances the can not be revealed till Taylor is awake and be told so he can deal with it in himself. Funds will go to the family's rent bills and car payments, as well as food and transportation back and forth to the hospital.

This is so important to his family to keep the family together and bills covered.

Taylor has been on his current job less than a year since he has no disability insurance and no FMLA. I ask for you to look into your heart and help with all you can, prayers would also be appreciated.

Taylor made it out of the ICU just before 10pm on March 30th they allowed me to stay to help with the transfer and to make sure that he was comfortable in his new room…

I had a talk with Taylor earlier. He said that he loves all of the support and prayers that you have been sending. He also wanted me to let you all know about what we have so far with held because we figured Taylor had the right to know about it first. But both him and I agree that additional support and prayer would be wonderful at this time.

But on March 13th at 4:30pm Taylor went to the Operating room to get his VA ECMO put in they put two tubes into an artery in his groin little bit above his right leg. One tube to take the blood out of your body another tube to reoxygenize it and then one tube put that blood back in. The size of the tubes were slightly bigger than the circumference of a quarter. After he came out of the operating room he was loaded into the back of the crisis ambulance and began the slow careful journey down to Froedtert in Milwaukee. He arrived before 11 don’t know exactly what time but it was early enough for him to get out of the Operating room at Froedtert and for him to be in his room when we arrived at the hospital after we picked his mom up from the airport they only could allow us to see him for an hour. When we got up to the room we were met by the whole team of doctors and nurses surrounding him. They told us that from the time that Taylor’s right leg has been lacking oxygen for 8 hours because what they call a distal cannula was not placed for his right leg to receive blood flow. That is the reason why he was taken immediately to the Operating room when he first arrived and that they tried to fix it. But it was just too late and most of Taylor’s right leg could not be saved. With all of the blood pressure medication that Taylor was on to keep the slightest tiny bit of a blood pressure he had left and the sores that he had on his left foot there was a chance that they may need to amputate at least a part of his left foot as well in the future but that they were going to watch and see what happens. Because time will tell… so now many days have passed and his most recent surgery was them closing up his amputation site. The wound doctors came in today and took a look at his left foot and how it is progressing it looks gnarly I will spare you the details and keep it short but underneath all of the nasty bits there is nice clean tissue and wound care even said today that Taylor’s left foot seems like it is going to pull through all of this! We will take the small positives we can get!!!
