Andrew Bub, also known as GamerDad, has had some bad luck. First, he got hit witha heart attack, and now the guy’s got some more trouble. The metal wiring holding his ribcage together has started grating against the muscles in his chest, causing internal bleeding to pool up inside of him. Needless to say, this is a major problem.
He sent out an e-mail to a bunch of us, giving us the heads up on the situation:
I had a massive heart attack in September.
The fund raiser my wife organized back then paid the bills and then some. But now the metal wiring that was used to hold my rib cage together is starting to…. move. It’s scraping the muscles in my chest and causing internal bleeding and that bleeding is pooling around my lungs and triggering asthma. My lungs are clear, but it feels like I have pneumonia and its felt like that for over two weeks now. I’m tired of it but it can’t be removed safely for another month. I’m burning through pain pills.
Anyway, this has incurred some new costs. I’m sure the bulk, maybe all, f it will be taken care of by insurance but my family could still use some cheering up.
So, he’s puta bunch of itemsup on eBay for people to bid on, including:
We’re trying to look out for our own here. So if you want, please bid on anything that interests you, or donate via PayPalon his site. Here’s to hoping that everything goes OK with him, and that this whole heart attack episode will soon be behind him.
All of us here at Destructoid wish Andrew the best of luck with his recovery from this.
