People always think it can't happen to them. But it can. I know, because it happened to me. Before I even knew what was going on, I was rushed to the hospital and told I needed emergency quintuple bypass surgery. Without that surgery, I would die.
Well, the surgery was a success as I stand here today, but that was only the beginning of the problems. I suddenly found myself inundated with insurmountable bills that incurred during my hospitalization and time away from work. The last thing I needed right then was to be stressed about my finances, and yet I felt completely hopeless.
Fortunately I was connected with the people at Faith's Hope Foundation. They, along with my family and friends, held a benefit for me to help raise the money I so desperately needed. I am so very thankful for Faith's Hope Foundation for the role they played in lightening a burden that once felt so incredibly overwhelming. I will be forever grateful.
