“Because you have to look at a three year old child and tell him ‘mom and dad can't fix this’ and that's what hurts most of all,” says father Jeremy Collier. Jeremy says he hasn't been able to keep a job because he's had to tend to his son's medical needs. His wife cares for their two other children with a fourth on the way.
“It's hard to have to see your son laying there he's not doing the stuff he wants to do like get up and play with his sister, brother, his toys,” says Jeremy. Medical supplies litter the home and expenses have piled up to the point where Jeremy says they can't even afford Brodie's burial.
“When you're in this situation you can't go nowhere, your prison is your home,” says Jeremy. Jeremy says asking for help is almost as tough as making ends meet.
“You want to be able to provide for your family it takes pride away from you when you have to go out and ask can you help me, can you please help me with this,” says Jeremy. Jeremy says they're reaching out to the community for help and have gotten some assistance from local restaurants and Catholic Social Services. If you can help there are a variety of venues. The Bayou Pharmacy and CVS have donation areas for the Colliers. Jeremy also has a PO Box for donations.
