Jonathan's Concussion Recovery
Donation protected
Hello Friends-
It's very difficult for me to be doing this, but here it goes.
A few weeks ago I had an accident at home in my backyard, and suffered a concussion.
At first things seemed OK, but as the first week went on things got worse.
Constant dizziness, inability to concentrate and remember things, pain, increased sleeplessness, trouble finding words, etc.
Then while at the tasting room, I had an incident where customers could not understand what I was saying...so I communicated to them in writing about the concussion.
They suggested the ER right away, again.
A friend delivered me to the ER, and a CT scan revealed no bleeding in my brain, but swelling and bruising on the inside of the brain where (and around) the blow to my head originally occurred.
The ER doctor told me not to go back to work, exercise, use the computer or watch the television. Then, this afternoon, my doctor and specialist told me absolutely none of the above mentioned activities for a month, until they are sure that I can't relapse.
This financial setbacks from this accident, combined with the decrease in area tourism (which supports my income) from the fires and floods of recent times...have and will continue to take it's toll until I can return to my jobs, and I am asking for help. Anything.
Thank You, Best Regards & Peace,
Jon
