Micheal Kelly, a long time resident of Hampton Bays, is in ICU fighting for his life in Burlington VT.

Some of you may have already heard, Micheal Kelly is in ICU in critical condition fighting for his life in Burlington VT. He has been in the ICU since Tuesday. He has severe sepsis. Last night Micheal went into septic shock and his organs are malfunctioning and shutting down. He has extremely low and life-threatening blood pressure and is currently on dialysis and a respirator with a very minimal chance of recovery. We do not yet have an exact reason for this, but we are asking for all the prayers we can get.

How you can help :
These medical expenses and bringing Micheal back home to New York are going to be a very expensive.
While we are hopeful that insurance will help with some of these costs, the remainder will still be well outside of his family’s financial ability. We are calling on the generosity of his extended family, friends, and strangers to help in the following ways:

· Donate whatever you can, no amount is too small.

· Share this GoFundMe campaign.

Thank you all so much,
