Donate to Support Dennis' Road to Recovery, organized by Alisha McCann

My name is Alisha and Dennis is my Uncle! On 6-4-2024 Dennis underwent a Colectomy and was to be driving his Camaro shortly after - unfortunately the universe had other plans. On 6-6-2024 Dennis started to not feel well, they ran tests and did scans and within hours Dennis was rushed to his second of many surgeries/procedures. On 6-6 he underwent emergency surgery for internal bleeding - they were able to get that under control however that lead to 6-7-2024! He was moved to the ICU! On 6-7 Dennis was feeling no better and after more tests and a scan dye scan they determined he needed another emergency surgery, his colon was leaking into his abdominal cavity, he had an ileostomy performed. Dennis had issues the following morning with feeling sick to his stomach, the surgeon luckily was walking by and noticed the NG tube they placed was moved and no longer working right. With the help of his two nurses, they were able to pull the tube out 3 inches and instantly it started doing what it was supposed to do. This was the last of surgery at the first hospital however these next multiple days were nothing easy, during that time had multiple scares with Sepsis, reactions to not one but multiple medications, 5+ CT scans, he went into AFIB, they also found abdominal abscesses ultimately requiring a transfer to a second facility. On 6-15 he was moved to HSHS. On Fathers day 6-16, he had his first procedure at the new hospital where they placed 3 drainage tubes in the largest abscesses. This was a BIG day because he got to eat FOOD for the first time since 6-3-2024, 13 days! On 6-18 he underwent another procedure where they had to put him under anesthesia again (fathers day they did not have to) where they placed 3 more drainage tubes. He is finally on the right road to recovery and will need 3+ weeks of antibiotic infusions, continued labs and follow ups - once he gets to go home, as of now he is still in HSHS. With this surgery turning into multiple emergency surgeries, hospitals and procedures - it is coming with it's hardships. Dennis, because of the extent of surgeries, will be out of work for months. Cassie, his better half, has been by his side through this entire adventure, he quite literally may have had other issues if she wasn't there, she was his voice when he couldn't speak. Despite these two being together 15+ years, she does not qualify for special benefits while she has been off by his side. Please consider helping out this amazing man so his family has one less thing to worry about while he continues to heal Read more
