This page has been created to support a friend who is going through a very hard time after being diagnosed as quadriplegic.
Churton Park, Wellington
Edison Henao Arroyave is a 33-year-old male who lives in Medellin, Antioquia. He has always been a very hardworking, kind, responsible, and family-oriented man. Edison has two daughters aged 6 and 10, and a wife for whom he has always provided financially.
On February 9, 2023, Edison was finishing his night shift when six people entered his workplace with weapons, intending to steal from there. Edison did not have much time to react when he was shot three times in the back. That night, Edison was taken to the hospital with zero chance of survival due to the severity of his injuries. After being admitted to the hospital, he underwent multiple surgeries in order to keep him alive. While he was in intensive care, his wife was informed that he would not be able to walk or move anything from his shoulders down.
After learning all of this, I have decided to take action and find a way to help a friend in need. Unfortunately, the healthcare system in his home country ( Colombia) is terrible, and he won't be able to receive any financial support for his therapies or receive any medication from the health system (as they have diagnosed him as quadriplegic). Basically, they are telling him that he won't receive any assistance. He was sent home with nothing, not even a wheelchair. I do not think this is fair for any person, which is why today I am asking you to please donate! Any donation will help this family immensely.
Gracias por leer y por su ayuda.
ESTAMOS CONTIGO EDISON!
Edison and I went to school together when we were 9 years old. Since then, we have known each other as we have mutual friends. I am heartbroken to know that he is going through this difficult time and I would love to support him as his family.
This money will be used for the following purposes
Sections with the physiotherapist
Medications and supplements for his recovery
Supplies like Urinary Cather, gloves, etc.
Funds will be passed onto Edison's wife Cindy Marcela Bedoya Ciro
