Campaign Story
In April of 2018, my best friend was injured while he was working. A patient had coded in a recliner chair and my friend, as the patients nurse, went to lift him out of the chair to resuscitate the man. After this incident my friend learned he had injured his shoulder and the injury required surgery. My friend was off work for 6 months due to the injury. He has not received compensation for the time off of work from the lawyers or the company he works for. My friend is a single father of five and an army veteran. He is very caring of others and will do anything for his children. Since returning to work, he continues to receive very small paychecks between 200 to 300 dollars due to the company garnishing is check for overpayment and insurance times 2 every check. My friend is struggling to make ends meet and catch up on bills. He has since picked up two extra jobs to help financially. I have tried helping any way I can. I am asking for help for my friend because of this hardship. This has been a trying time and all he wants his to provide for his children. Every little bit counts to help this family of six make it through these hard times.
