I'm Amanda, wife/life partner of Eddie. Currently I'm a stay at home mom who sells Tupperware, wrangles kids and takes online courses, working towards my AS in business management. Eddie is an automotive mechanic who has worked hard for everything that we have. We've been talking about making some changes around the house, some remodeling, buying a decent sized shed, things like that. Life was good.
On Monday, January 13, Eddie suffered a hemorrhagic stroke. He's been in ICU since being admitted to the hospital. First it was a waiting game, and now it's watching and monitoring his blood pressure to ensure that it stays fairly low. Right now we don't know how long he is going to be in the hospital, or even what the future holds for him after that. What I do know is that bills still need to be paid, and life continues on, regardless of everything else.
Because Eddie was the primary breadwinner of the household, obviously we no longer have that income coming in. This is where I sit down and humbly ask for your help. Yes, I realize that things will most likely continue to change. There will be big and small changes as we go through this, and I will work through anything and everything that I need to in order to ensure we are ok, and continue to be ok, as a family. I need to make sure bills are covered, and work on making necessary changes around the house for when Eddie finally does come home.
