Please help my dad get by

Hello,
My dad William Westerman Jr. was involved in an incident where a jack kicked out from under a pick up truck while working on the front brakes. Resulting in pinched nerves and bulged disks in his neck. The jack did not have the proper pad on top of it and was already placed under the truck by a co-worker when he began working on it. This incident occurred on June 30,2016. Since this happened my dad has had several appointments, therapy, chiropractor, doctor, ER visits. He saw the workmens comp Dr who diagnosed him with degenerative disc disease. He has never had a neck injury or issues prior to this incident. He has been diagnosed with tinnitus, and has recently experienced a seizure, had a possible heart attack and has been dealing with severe headaches. Due to this happening the injection and/or surgery has to be put on hold, making this a longer process and financially straining him. Until this point my father was being paid his normal wages. Since October, 2016 he has not received any income. Since the company he was employed through never let him go, he is unable to collect unemployment because in their eyes he is still employed. I am concerned about his well being as well as my 17 year old sister. He is married to my step mother Melissa Westerman and she is employed with Waste Management. She works full time but it is not enough to cover all of their bills. Completely caught between a rock and a hard place. I am looking for a way to raise money to donate to him, as the medical bills and normal bills keep piling up.
I know if he had a single wish in this world it would be to keep all of his belongings. Since this happened he has had no choice but to sell most of the things he has worked so hard for. Our family would appreciate any little help at this time. Thank you.
