Urgent Aid for Anthony's ICU Battle

Donation protected
Hello my name is Dalis and I am starting this GoFundMe due to a medical emergency our family is now facing.
Saturday morning Aug. 24, 2024 my spouse, Anthony, woke me up at 7am stating he just had a seizure. Within 30 seconds of telling me, he fell into another episode. He had 7 seizures in about a ten minute span. He's been in the hospital since. Anthony came into the ER with 50% oxygen levels, a ph level so low that is wasn't detectable, and aspiration pneumonia. He is currently in the ICU on life support, supported by a ventilator and there isn't a time frame on when he'll be able to wake up due to still being too unstable and relying too much on the ventilator.
With all this happening I am still trying to work, take care of our combined 3 children, and going up to the hospital every chance I can to be by his side. To my knowledge and research...these medical bills are going to be outatanding...an amount I just cannot hack on top of taking care of current bills while he's gone, as he was the sole provider.
I ask for any help I can get from the good graciousness of God's people. For whatever comes of this, the funds will be used to help towards the current and upcoming bills until Anthony is back on his feet!
This is such a hard pill to swallow...I never ask for help so to be able to make this is taking a lot from me.. it is by no means ANYONES RESPONSIBILITY BUT OUR OWN TO TAKE CARE OF OUR PROBLEMS AT HAND....but....I'm truly hitting a breaking point... so anything at all would be gravely appreciated.

Thank you and God bless,
Dalis

UPDATE!
Anthony is home!!! After spending two weeks in the hospital, HE IS HOME!
Anthony is a having a hard time adjusting to his "new rules" like no driving for 6 months and not to be alone for the first week of being home, but we are making it work! Thank you all for the continued support and all of the prayers! It will not be forgotten!
