I would like to first say that this is the hardest decision I've had to make in the last ten days. I have never been comfortable asking for help, in any way, whatsoever. So it is with courage that I proceed in telling you all briefly what has happened. On the morning of March 7,2017 I fell from and onto a ladder and shattered my calcaneous (heel bone). I spent 5 days on the trauma floor at MUSC, with a total of 3 surgeries to clean this very bad wound. They require pics here, and I apologize in advance for the ghastliness of it all. The lead surgeon, Dr. Hartsock at MUSC looked very sternly as he told me of the severity and reconstructive/healing of this type of injury. This will require immobilization and no weight beared on my left foot for an undetermined amount of months, coupled with a minimum of two surgeries, depending on the conditions and what is agreed best for the total picture. Needless to say, I'm not going to be able to work for a number of months, and I have no insurance either. Thank God for MUSC and their entire staff and program, I know I have recieved the best care and am grateful beyond words. Now back to the original state of purpose here, again, go fund me asked me to put up a goal amount. It is so hard for me to do this, let alone ask for a certain amount, so my daughter said 10 k after we had discussed my normal cash to survive on every month. Granted, this amount is not for one month, but 6 months. I am going to be down work wise for at least that long, and I have simple normal bills to get by on every month for things like rent, car ins., cell phone, food, etc. So any help at all will be greatly appreciated. Thank you and I love you, Matt Boren
