My grandson, Michael Anthony Sheridan, was blessed with a baby boy on November 15, 2013. But the night before Thanksgiving -- a mere 10 days later -- my grandson was hit by a habitual drunk driver and sustained serious, life-threatening injuries.
It was a hit and run! Michael, in an
effort to save money on gas, was struck down on his small motorcycle
heading home to be with his 10-day-old son, Michael Anthony Sheridan,
Jr., who we call “MiniMike” or “Junior.”
Since Thanksgiving Eve, Michael Sr. has been in the hospital -- and in
the ICU for 6 days! He has a collapsed lung, lacerated kidney, 3 broken
ribs, bruised bladder, and lacerated both hands. At the hospital, they
found a spot on his lung and are running tests. Whatever the outcome of
those tests, it will be a very long healing process. The doctors expect
he will be unable to work for at least two to three months!
Michael Sr. and his family live paycheck to paycheck with no money left over for savings. This 20-year-old is a member of our country’s working poor and works very hard to support his young family.
He needs your help with basic expenses, including rent, water, electric and phone and of course items for the baby like diapers and formula. Another family tragedy occurred to Kara, who was breastfeeding MiniMike when Mike Sr. had the accident. The shock of the hit-and-run caused her milk to dry up. While Mike Sr. was in the hospital, Kara had to switch over to formula, another unexpected expense for the family.
Anything you can give to help this family would be greatly appreciated! - See more at: http://www.youcaring.com/help-a-neighbor/help-a-new-father-hit-by-a-drunk-driver-on-thanksgiving-eve/113317#sthash.i4cDccnJ.dpuf
