Jason Schroeder and His Family Abroad

Donation protected
Jason is loved by many and his story a Trilogy can be written on. What most of us call living, is something he would smile about. He has hit some pretty bad luck in the last 7 months. While on vacation visiting his family from his job in the Middle East, he had a simple dental procedure that in the States would have take an hour. After several sessions, Jason was unable to open his mouth and was admitted to hospital. He began shivering uncontrollably and the doctors were unable to identify the cause. After several bouts of shivering for long periods of time, it was found his body was going in to septic shock. The infection spread to his neck and airway and the doctors were unable to intubate him due to Trismus, saying he had 18 hours to live unless they performed an emergency Tracheotomy. Jason said he was scared that he would die before he got to see his boys grow up and see his daughters get married. The Doctors in the Philippines demanded cash upfront for any medical attention he needed and after several thousands of dollars a day, and 6 weeks in the hospital unable to speak, his 15 years of working overseas was gone. His parents flew down to get him back to the US, and to keep the antibiotics in his system they had to come out of their retirement money to get him home. Jason has been home for a few months and the story gets even worse . After only being in the States a few months doing physical therapy and well on his way to recovering from severe nerve damage and a paralyzed vocal cord, earthquakes hit the Philippiness in the exact location of his neighborhood. Serveral were killed but his wife was able to remove their 4 children and escape the home before it collapsed. Jason and his family have lost everything. His 2 sets of twins and his wife are all living in  tents in the middle of his corn fields in order to stay away from debris. Right now!! Please help get Jason to the Philippines with enough money to get his his wife and kids back over here to the US. Anything will help. Call me at [phone redacted] or bring food, auction items or whatever you can that can help raise money to get him on his feet again. He is loved by so many and no one has heard his story until now.
