Hi, my name is Jes Schaefer. I am starting a fundraiser for my little brother, Stacee Rieser.
He was at work several weeks ago, and he bent over to pick something up, which caused a tear in his stomach wall, allowing the contents of his stomach to pour into his abdominal cavity, which caused him to become septic.
His coworkers rushed him to the hospital, and he was taken in for emergency surgery.
The tear in his stomach was repaired, and he has IVs of strong antibiotics to fight the sepsis.
He is single, 40 years old, and supports himself. He will be out of work for 8 weeks, or longer if the sepsis doesn’t clear out of his blood.
I am making this fundraiser for him to have money to pay his living expenses and medical bills. He has no health insurance, and he doesn’t make enough money to pay his living expenses and pay for health insurance.
