I'm increasing the goal for my brother-in-law, Johnathan, as their insurance policy will no longer cover his stay at the rehabilitation facility (even though he continues to make progress). This means they are now responsible for room & board as well as daily PT & OT services. The costs are significant - more than I ever imagined - so I am increasing the goal once again to allow him to stay and continue his rehab program at the Courage Center.
Please consider donating if you haven't done so already. Or if you have donated (thank you!) please help spread the word.
If you are seeing this page for the first time, on February 4th, my
brother-in-law, Johnathan, fell down his stairs at home fracturing multiple
vertebrae and bruising his spinal cord leaving him paralyzed in his upper and
lower extremities.
My sister is now faced with many health and medical expenses and unfortunately
many are not covered by insurance. So that’s why I’m turning to my friends to
see if we can help alleviate some of the financial burden and stress they
are facing. My goal is to raise $50,000 on behalf of her family. If
you are able to make a financial donation please know any amount is greatly
appreciated. Johnathan spent 5 1/2 weeks in ICU, the trauma unit and the hospital’s acute
rehab facility. He was just transferred to the Courage Center - Minnesota’s top
rehab facility for spinal cord injury patients -https://www.allinahealth.org/Courage-Kenny-Rehabilitation-Institute/Golden-Valley/ He most likely will be there
for 12 weeks & then go home to continue outpatient rehab.
It will be an extremely long road to recovery and as we all know insurance only
covers so much time in rehabilitation centers. There are lots of expenses such
as in home care, equipment, home modifications, covering her children’s needs
and expenses during this time and continuing to have regular ongoing living
expenses.
Johnathan is very determined and has already made some amazing progress. He has
regained some motor and sensory and his team of therapists are hopeful. He is
working extremely hard every day to get his mobility back and we are all
cheering him on.
Please join me in this effort by making a donation to this fund and please keep
the Sain family in your hearts.
