The Truck Stop : NEED HELP...INJURED FELL OFF A ROOFTOP


NEED HELP...INJURED FELL OFF A ROOFTOP

Hi everyone,

A good friend of mine went to Memphis to visit and ended up falling off of a rooftop, shattering his heel bone and tibia

Because he has no health insurance and is not a resident of TN, the ER gave him a plastic leg/ankle brace and told him he needs to see a Orthopedic surgeon/doctor ASAP - but there wasn't a whole lot they can do there because of the lack of insurance and residency.

He can't afford to pay for the bus ride back to Springfield, MA and being on a bus with a unset broken leg for 30+ hours would be too much for anyone.

So now, I am turning to you guys asking for help - I grew up around truckers - I know what a great bunch of people you are.

IF there is anyone going from Memphis, TN to Springfield, MA ( I can drive to get him in CT, VT)
He can pay about $50.00 and is a great traveling companion.

Thank you so much and have a happy holiday
