A terrible story.

[Mentaltossflycoon]

So if this is inappropriate here go ahead and take it down. An old friend and former college housemate, was carjacked while delivering food for uber. He was somehow able to drive himself to the ED after being shot 4 times.

Anyway, I shared to fbook but admittedly this place is the closest thing to a social media that I participate in regularly so I thought I'd put it here too. He could use any help he can get. His left arm is in bad shape. Not sure how long it'll be before he'll be able to work again.

We used to play the absolute worst version of Back in Black ever (mostly my fault) in our basement drunk af.

Done... I live in the Portland area, and things have just gotten scary around here... I'm not going to get on my soapbox, because this isn't the time or place... but please wish your friend a speedy recovery and I hope he's able to get the insurance sorted soon...

Done. Wishing your friend a speedy recovery @Mentaltossflycoon !

You're all stellar folk. I took him some soup the other day. He was in pretty good spirits considering. I'm just so glad he's breathing and out of the hospital.

Seriously, why does it have to suck everywhere all the time?

Ugh, that sucks. Not to turn this political at all, but there are lots of aspects of our country that need some dire attention. Looks like he’s got a great support group, including yourself, as it shows with the goal closing in on being reached. Best of luck to him. @Mentaltossflycoon
