Morticia LaDucati hasn't added a story.
Instead of creating a Pity Party or a long drawn out hard luck story. .... I am keeping this story short and simple.... November 24th 2015 I pulled a stunt that went sideways on my 800cc ATV.... I came down and hit just perfectly on my fullface helmet against a rock and knocked myself silly... as a result of the blow... I was taken from the local hospital by a Rescue Squad to Gainesville. .. the care that followed by an Emergency Opthamologist who was more concerned with getting back to her family for Thanksgiving then preventing my permanent loss of eyesight started the 22 month Odyssey of one surgery after another in an attempt to save both eyes by specialists from as far as Miami....
My left eye was saved with complete return of vision.... unfortunately the mistakes made in the beginning allowed too much damage for full vision to be restored to my right eye. ... But instead of whining and crying boo-hoo... I have (with a lot of help) gotten thru every surgery... every recovery and I am now done with surgery... it is what it is...
So now Ghost and I want to take the Harley with him as Navigator in the Sidecar on a trip across the Southern States in August when I get my final release....
Needless to say I will be paying medical co-pays for years to come and at no time do I consider any support to the Escape my personal Piggy Bank.... So I am tossing this out in the hopes of raising gas/food/campground funds and also hoping some hospitality might be offered as we travel....
So Sorry I didn't feel like making up the sad story from hell and lying about what the funds are for... but.... I know I am sick to death of people asking for desperate help then seeing them on vacation or partying on funds raised under false pretenses....
There is no such thing as a small donation to me... every dollar is a treasure and a few more miles. .. Thank You for taking the time to read this and kicking in if you can....
