    Update

    Yesterday was Milton Lowrey Jr.s post op appointment. The nurse was trying to take miltons stitches out and they were stuck. He ask her to give him just a minute. And next thing you know. Lights out for Milton. His head dropped. And his body started shaking it looked he was having a seizure. I caught him as he fell over the nurse ran for help. Skylar went to screaming and crying. Before I knew it a minimum of 20 nurses flooded in the room. One of the nurses helped me get scholar out of the room.And into the hallway, where we immediately hit the floor and started praying. A very nurse named Shari took skylar and I to her office while they worked on Milton. The he was transported to the er for lots of testing. He was released yesterday evening and diagnosed with cardiac syncope. #MartinezStrong #PostCABGSurgery

About this fundraiser

Milton is a 51 year old husband, father and truck driver from Jay, Fl. On Jan 20th he went to the ER with chest pains They done a heart cath and found he has Coronary Artery Disease. On Jan 22nd Milton had On-Pump Triple Bypass surgery. After the surgery his hearts EF function is only 35%, when it should be 50-70%. He was released from the hospital on Jan 28th with a LiveVest that monitors his heart 24 hours a day. It also has a built in defibrillator so that if he has a cardiac event it will shock his heart back to a safe rhythm and give us time to get him to medical professionals. He will wear this for 3 months then the Dr will decide if he needs a permanent device, continue to wear the LifeVest or if he is ok to return to work. 

Milton and his wife have applied for food stamps and medicaid, however, their is a waiting period. when he sees his doctor they will discuss disability. At the moment Milton's family has gone family has gone from having a steady income to zero income and the bills have not stopped pilling up. From health insurance premiums to power bill to car insurance, phone bill etc. They are thankful for any help they can get. THANK YOU IN ADVANCE!
