Meet my brother Tony:

An inspiring young man living with cerebral palsy, yet faithfully working the graveyard shift scrubbing floors at Walmart for over 5 and a half years in one of the most dangerous parts of Phoenix. Then Last Sunday, August 12th, Tony's world came to a halt as he found himself lying on the floor of his home after being shot through the throat during a robbery. He was rushed into surgery to repair a vein right next to the jugular and admitted to ICU, where he was put into an induced coma. The Doctors say he is a walking miracle, and if it were any other angle, the shot would have been fatal.

Detectives were able to recover most of the stolen items, but when they opened his safe, all the money he had been saving for over two years to go on a vacation with was gone.

Still, Tony smiles and fights the pain in a long recovery process, determined to get back to work.

And when asked what he was going to do if they never find the money, he simply raised his eyebrows and said "then i gotta start saving again."

So I'm throwing a penny into the wishing well for him, and even a penny back helps!

I put a video up to introduce people to my amazing big brother and it has a link to his page on fundly.com, where you can donate online on a secure account to help raise money to help pay for uncovered medical bills, clothing, food, a new mattress(his was slashed open by the burglars)....the basics...even gift cards help!!!!

my direct email if you have any questions is urbanartt@yahoo.com

here's a link to the VIDEO, just highlight, copy the address, and then paste it into your browser...thank you!!!!
