    Default My Brother

    Last April, my younger brother Steve, had a heart attack. 3 stints were installed and after just a short hospital stay, sent home. EVERYTHING was just fine and we all said how wonderfull how quickly all this came to pass. Almost exactly 1 week later as he was out in his tractor, a blood clot enter his heart and it stopped. My other brother, Joe, was there and saw it happen. The tractor ran into his pickup and stopped. Joe ran over to see him slumped over the steering wheel, not breathing. Drug him out and started CPR while Steve's wife called 911. 200 compessions were preformed till the paramedics arrived. At the hospital they induced a coma for fear of brain damage from lack of oxygen. As time passed, the fear of brain damage has become a reaility. Insurances have stopped. We have sold all his buffalo and preparing to sell his farm too to pay for the extended health care, which may NEVER end. Trying daily to fine some other aids to help and maybe force to divorce, this SUCKS!!!! There seems to be Government help but, you must be destitute to get it. They are getting there FAST!!!! So, September, 12th, at Johnnie's Bar, in N. Lawrence, there will be a auction, food sale and items raffled to help my brother Steve & family. I was to raffle a guide trip but, was printed wrong and it will be auctioned. This will be an all day affair. If you have time come over and see if any of this stuff you can use. Thanks!!! <*)}}}><
    You'll see the difference,,,on the end of your line!
