9 MONTHS AGO JIM UNDER WENT A MAJOR SURGERY TO HAVE A TUMOR REMOVED IN HIS HEAD AS YOU CAN SEE IT IN THE PICTURE BELOW.CAUSING AMPUTATION OF THE EAR DRUM,COMPLETE HEARING LOSS AND PARALYSIS OF HIS FACE. THE TUMOR HE HAD REMOVED WAS DONE AT THE MEDICAL COLLAGE IN MILWAUKEE.THE SURGERY TOOK 14 LONG HOURS, A WEEK IN THE HOSPITAL AWAY FROM HIS FAMILY
AND 2 MONTHS AWAY FROM OUR BUSINESS.WHICH IS THE ONLY INCOME OUR FAMILY HAS. AT THE TIME ALL THIS HAPPENED JIM DID NOT HAVE INSURANCE BEING THAT HE IS A SMALL BUSINESS OWNER.
PLUS WITH A PRE EXISTING CONDITION IT WAS HARD TO GET ANYONE TO EVEN LOOK IN HIS DIRECTION.THE FINAL BILLS CAME TO OVER $252.000.WHICH WE ARE STILL PAYING FOR AND PROBABLY WILL FOR
THE REST OF OUR LIFE.JIM AND I HAVE 4 CHILDREN TOGETHER AND THEY HAVE ALWAYS BEEN OUR MAIN CONCERN SO WE NEVER WORRIED ABOUT OURSELVES.GIVING THEM THE BEST LIFE THEY CAN HAVE AND
MAKING SURE IF THEY BECAME SICK OR ILL WE HAD THE MONEY SET AWAY FOR THEM TO BE TAKEN CARE OF.THAT HAS ALL CHANGED AS OF A YEAR AGO. ALL AND ANY MONEY WE HAD IS NOW GONE AND WE STRUGGLE FROM DAY TO DAY TRYING AND HOPING WE CAN DIG OURSELVES OUT OF THIS HOLE.NOW IF THATS NOT ENOUGH TO TAKE IN ALREADY JIM WENT IN FOR HIS RE CHECK MRI A FEW WEEKS AGO. AFTER A COUPLE OF DAYS WE GOT THE CALL FROM THE DOCTOR THAT NO ONE WANTS TO HEAR. THE TUMOR HAS RETURNED .:(
NOW JIM HAS TO HAVE SURGERY AGAIN FORCING US DEEPER IN DEBT. THIS TIME THE SURGERY WILL BE IN A DIFFERENT SECTION OF HIS HEAD DUE TO THE SCARED TISSUE AND THE SKULL CLAMPS THAT HAVE ALREADY BEEN PLACED FROM THE LAST PROCEDURE LEAVING MORE SCARRING,PLUS MORE NERVE DAMAGE HE MAY NEVER GET BACK. AFTER SURGERY JIM WILL HAVE TO UNDER GO CHEMOTHERAPY. SO NOT ONLY WILL HE HAVE TO GO THROUGH THIS AGAIN BUT HE WILL BE MISSING WORK FOR A LONG TIME AND FOR THE PEOPLE WHO KNOW JIM, KNOW ITS ONLY HIM AND I THAT RUN OUR BUSINESS AND HE DOES ALL THE GOLDSMITHING SO OUR BUSINESS WILL BE IN JEOPARDY AS REPAIRS ARE OUR REASON WE STAY AFLOAT.AND AS SAID BEFORE THIS IS OUR FAMILIES ONLY INCOME. SO I AM CALLING OUT FOR HELP. PLEASE HELP OUT OUR FAMILY IN OUR TIME OF NEED.HELP OUR CHILDREN PUT PEACE IN THEIR HEARTS KNOWING THAT JUST BECAUSE DADDY IS SICK WE ARE GOING TO BE ALRIGHT.
I CAN PROMISE IT WILL BE PAYED FORWARD.
