Shane has suddenly taken ill while driving interstate. He is in hospital in Bendigo in an induced coma and will likely need heart surgery when he is strong enough.
Self employed - while he is not working he has no income.
It was his dream to own his own truck and the dream was realised about 12 months ago. Last month he had to have an engine rebuild which cost a lot of money and kept him off the road for several weeks. He was finally back on the road on his first trip when he became seriously ill.
He needs to maintain payments on his truck and trailers so that when he recovers he still has the ability to earn an income, or worst case scenario sell his truck. If he doesn't maintain the payments on the equipment the bank will likely fire sale his truck and he will be left with nothing.
As his friends we are working to prevent this happening.
To top it off it is his 60th birthday today and he is missing it!
Any donation, be it large or small, will take the pressure off of Shane while he recovers from this very serious situation with his health.
I wish Shane and his family all the best in these tragic circumstances and hope Shane recovers well from this xx
