Hey guys and gals! It has been a while since I have been active much on this site. Unfortunately, I come with some bad news (about myself). On Saturday September 5th, I had to undergo a below knee amputation of my right foot due to a serious infection of my entire mid foot after 20 months of attempted salvage efforts. It has been a rouch past couple of years.
Now the reason that I am posting here is because I am currently living out of state (I live in Alaska, procedure was done in Arizona) and I am unable to work while out of state. This means that I can't make any money while I am recovering here for the next 2-3 months. This community has always been amazing at supporting each other and I only hoped to be able to pull from some of that support. I have setup a GoFundMe campaign and I am just trying to raise a little money to support my wife and I so we don't get buried in bills.
I promise you I am a real person and I intend to use any donated money for living costs, medical costs, and bills. I know not everyone is interested in reading these kinds of stories but since our savings ran out, I have been posting anywhere I can to just get some attention to my campaign. If that means I only get $5 donated, then I will be happy
Here is the URL to my campaign. There is a story on there too that explains more about my accident.

Thank you everyone for reading this. Please feel free to ask my any questions and I will try to respond to them as quickly as I can.
