If you recall, back in July some members of our community were involved in a car accident. Now while most of them have recovered, Arwen “Spliff” Rosa is still in the ICU.
While he has made progress, he’s not out of the woods yet and is still in need of constant care. Spliff and his wife Jill are from NYC and have been in Texas since the accident. While the support has been incredible, Jill is 7 months pregnant with their child and when the baby is born it will become incredibly difficult to care for both Spliff and the baby. Back in NYC the two have a large support network of family and friends, and are now looking to get Arwen transferred to a facility in NYC.
They have been accepted into an excellent facility and are now on the wait list. When the call comes, they will have 4 days to move Arwen from Texas to NYC or they will lose their spot. Due to his condition, Spliff will require a medical air transport, which isn’t cheap.
From Jill: “The goal we need to work with right now is getting him/us back home to New York. Arwen has been accepted to a facility there. We are waiting for a bed to open up for him. Once we get that call we’ve got about 4 days to make it there before they pass it on to who’s next on the list. We were going to use long distance ground transport, but due to his health and the weather headed back east it seems to be a dangerous idea. We need to fly him home.”
“Arwen is not getting the care he needs out here and there’s only a couple people who can physically help us. In New York we’ve got family, support system, lots of resources, everything we need. Not to mention our Baby girl is due in about 8 weeks! I have been trying to look into medical foundations and charities so far with no luck. Please help if you can.”

Fuck if I could afford it, I would gladly double any funds raised for the set Oppositronic on fire fund back to the Spliff fund! What a fucking asshole! My regards to Spliff and his family and friends! Stay strong and keep on fighting!

omg his poor arms look destroyed! I pray for you both to get back to your home, I just know that once in a place you know with the people you love all things will start to get better. Good luck on your mission, and thank goodness the baby is ok…
I’ll be keeping you both in my thoughts and heart and hope that the new year treats you both well.

Kate: There seems to be a bit more info here (http://www.nassauchainsaw.com/blog/update-arwen-aka-spliff-jill-click-here-make-donation). Hopefully that’ll answer your questions.
Hope he recovers as quickly as possible.

Im sure they did the whole pros and cons thing, but damn…I’m not sure that I would move back home if it was going to cost $20,000. With that said, do those of you donating not wonder if your money would be better suited to something like starting a college fund for their kid?
I understand that family and support systems are important, but you are essentially spending $20,000 to get him home a couple months before (hopefully) he will be well enough to take ground transport…
I wish you nothing but the best of luck and I hope the intensity of this situation doesn’t stop you from looking a little bit further down the road of life.

@ Quality, once they get the call that a bed has opened up for Arwen, he has 4 to 5 days to get to the facility or they will give his bed to someone else. At that point, there is no telling if or when he will be able to get into the facility. So time is a pressing matter, or else Arwen, Jill, and their newborn baby will be stuck in Lubbock, TX without the huge support system that’s waiting to help take care of Arwen and help Jill take care of little Odessa in New York. At this point, it’s becoming detrimental to Jill and the baby to remain in TX. So yes, they need to get back to NY as soon as possible.
