N.Y. Vinnie's Medical Expenses
Donation protected
Our dear friend N.Y. Vinnie has been in the hospital since a few days before Thanksgiving. He was having problems breathing due to complications from sleep apnea.There are a few other issues as well. He was intubated when admitted and has been sedated to keep him comfortable. As of today, it looks like he will have surgery on 12/16 for a tracheotomy.
Even with insurance, his family's out-of-pocket costs will amount to many thousands of dollars. His treatment includes at least one surgery and he has already been in the hospital for over 3 weeks. We don't know how long he will need to stay and we don't know what kind of care he will need once released and there is the loss of income due to not being able to work during this time.
Anyone that knows Vinnie, knows that he is a dedicated father and someone who cares deeply about his community. Whenever his friends or even strangers are in need, Vinnie is the first to step up. Now he needs the help of his friends and family around the world. Please consider helping Vinnie with a donation so he can concentrate on getting well and not have to worry so much about his medical costs and living expenses.
