Just a quick little hello to the MWO community... I've been an active player roughly from the beginning of open beta. I'm not so much an active forum poster as I am an active forum reader. I've been involved in most of the fundraising events that this community has hosted. But now I have to ask for a return favor.... As it will explain in this link I'm posting, my wife was in a head on collision in January of 2012, the other driver was trying to pass on a blind hill on icy roads.
I work as a heavy equipment operator and a year into her recovery I suffered a heart attack, for which I ended up having triple bypass surgery in September of 2013. I should have been recovered and back to work within' six months or so, but 4 months into my recovery I ended up in a coughing fit and broke the wires holding my chest together. It created a 10mm gap in my chest plate, which I am recovering from, but it has delayed my recovery time tremendously. Now due to the time off both of our insurance's have run out. I am looking at about 6 more months downtime with physiotherapy which at the moment is unaffordable, which is why I've broken down and am posting this..... any help would be greatly appreciated... and if this is in the wrong place I apologize, I wasn't sure where I could put this..... please share post... thank you.

Best of luck, hope you get well/find funding soon.

How are you both? Is there anything life threatening?

I really do wish I had the funds to donate, but I'm tight on funds for anything right now . I'm sorry, I'll keep you and your wife in my prayers.

[Lurch180]

No, not life threatening, at least not yet anyways... fingers crossed.... just needing a little help to get through until physiotherapy is done and then to get back to work.... and all the help is truly appreciated... just one of those pay if forward kind of things.....

[990Dreams]

Well, at least there is no apparent life-threatening problem for either of you. It could have been much worse in your wife's case.
