Hospitalized, please help my family

The evening of Monday, April 10th, Jesus Rodriguez (Jesse) entered Christus Santa Rosa hospital due to suffering from shortness of breath, chills, and not feeling well overall.
Jesse's health condition deteriorated rapidly, and as a result, Tuesday, April 11th, he was put in Intensive Care (ICU).
Based on medical tests performed, Dr.'s uncovered a severe blood infection that had travelled to the bloodstream. Jesse was immediately put on three antibiotics, in hopes of eradicating it.
Unfortunately, the infection was identified as sepsis, which led to respiratory failure, and the need for a breathing tube to keep him alive.
Due to the severity of CO2 levels in his blood, and risk of Jesse's brain being affected, not to mention, risk of heart attack, Saturday, April 15th, Jesse was put on a ventilator.
According to the Doctors, Jesse will have to remain on the ventilator for at least a week and/or until the infection has left the body, and Jesse's coherence is back to normal.
As of April 16th, Jesse's CO2 levels have dropped and blood oxygen is back to normal. Although we are hoping and praying that Jesse's body is able to fight the infection and recover quickly, Doctors have already communicated that he will require physical therapy once off the machine.
Jesse has been out of work since April 10th and Jennifer, his wife, who had just gotten a job as a 911 Operator and was in training, has also missed work since April 11th. Jennifer has taken off from work to ensure Jesse is cared for 24/7. Unfortunately, with both of them off work this is putting strain on their financial situation.
Our goal in creating this page, is to raise enough funds for Jesse and Jennifer to cover their monthly bills while he recovers, and she is in the hospital caring for him.
We hope you can help us! If not with a donation, please keep him and his family in your prayers. Thank you.
