Rally for Richard's Heart Recovery

After a career change and two weeks away from Health Insurance, Thursday night, Richard had to be rushed to the Emergency Room. Once arriving at the Emergency Room and after running some tests, the medical professionals came to the conclusion that Richard's heart was severely enlarged and was only running at 15% capacity. From there they transferred him from Inland Valley Hospital to Temecula Valley Hospital. While at Temecula Valley a series of events had occurred to where he became to unstable to support himself and had to be placed into a medically induced coma and put on full life support in the Intensive Care Unit. The doctors had to do an angioplasty to place a balloon pump above his heart to help support the heart. For the next two days he stay on life support while waiting to be transferred to the UCSD Thornton Hospital to be placed underneath the care of a specialized Cardiologist. A specialized ambulance was needed in order to safely transport him and all of the life supporting equipment. On Easter he was transported to USCD under lights and sirens. At this point we are waiting for what the next steps are going to be in his recovery. 

Any donation or contribution is very appreciated in this difficult time for him and his family.
