Aloha My name is Troy Fernandez.  In 1982 I had a surgery on My right knee for a football injury. I always felt that it wasn't done right cause its been bothering Me ever since. In the past 35 years I re-injured the same knee a bunch of times and it only got worse.  A doctor back then told Me that I would need to do a knee replacement surgery by the time I reach 40 and probably another one when I reach 60.  I recently reinjured my right knee and had to go to the ER.  The doctor said once the swelling on my knee goes down, I should do a knee replacement as soon as possible.  The doctor said the surgery will be a difficult one because of the severe damage on my knee.  Living with pain on a daily basis and having limited motion,  I feel doing this surgery would give me a better quality of life. From the bottom of My Heart, I ask Everybody if You can make a donation for My knee replacement surgery.  This money would not only help with my medical expenses but would also help my family financially while I am down and unable to work.  Not only I would greatly appreciate it, but My Wife Rose and My 2 Daughters Tory and Tia would greatly appreciate it too.  I would like to thank Everybody for all of Your consideration during Our unfortunate situation.
