Hope for Paul

I'm lost on what to say. I can't believe we're here. How is this real life??
As most of you know, my father Paul Rand is in the hospital for covid pneumonia. He's on a ventilator and in critical condition. He went into the hospital due to low oxygen and from there everything went downhill. First, he developed blood clots in his lungs and became high risk for a heart attack. Then he developed holes in his lungs, leading to his right lung collapsing. This resulted in him needing a tube placed in his chest and him being placed on a ventilator. At this point he was sedated and placed into a medically induced coma. Paul was transferred to a hospital in the cities, as they are more equipped to deal with someone on a ventilator. Not long after being at the new hospital his left lung collapsed and another tube was inserted on his other side. The hospital's approved treatments are not helping him. We, his family, would like to try giving him Ivermectin. He has a prescription for it, but it arrived after he was admitted to the hospital. The hospital is refusing to give it to him. We would like to hire a lawyer, and expert witnesses, to get him Ivermectin. There are multiple studies from other countries showing that Ivermectin has helped. Being that the hospital is unable to help him with their approved medications, we'd like them to try Ivermectin. To get them to do so, we have to sue them. Please, I beg of you, help us raise the funds to try to save our dad's life.
 
You can donate here, where a processing fee will be deducted from your donation, or you can donate to my Venmo (@KimberlyRand) or Paypal ([email redacted]). If you do so by selecting Friends & Family, no deduction will be taken from your donation. THANK YOU!!

Please note: If Paul passes before lawyers are obtained, the money will be used for his funeral. If Paul recovers before lawyers are obtained, the money will be used for medical expenses.
