Andy Was Brutally Attacked By A Mob-Please Help the A-Team!

My much beloved brother-in-law Andy was attacked and brutally beaten by a gang of 20 guys at random the other week. He has been suffering severe head trauma, a fractured skull and brain bleeding. My sister Angie, was fortunately unharmed in the attack, but is facing the devastation that this attack has wrought upon their lives. Andy and Angie have 3 boys, Alex, Austin and Aidan. This is why we call 'em the A-team. Some people like the first letter of the alphabet and some people REALLY like the first letter of the alphabet. :) Andy has been a self employed carpenter and licensed builder for years, tracking down work everywhere he could find it in Michigan's crappy construction economy to keep himself fully employed, but he has no coverage for the rehabilitation he needs and my sister is not even able to return to work yet because he still needs care at home everyday. She is doing everything she can 24/7, to care for her husband, kids and on top of that, try to make whatever contacts and find whatever paperwork she can fill out to secure his desperately needed medical care. He was released from the hospital without even a further tests to see if his brain had stopped bleeding, presumably because of the lack of insurance. He is in pain, mentally in and out of it, and when she has tried to bring him into the ER during a heightened state of pain and disorientation, she has gotten turned away. My nephews, 2 of which are school aged and had to be kept home for over a week so that the other students could stop talking about the brutal details of the beating, in class and on the playground, are handling it as well as they can, but this is going to be an ongoing process, adjusting to life with a dad who has been incapacitated. This has been a nightmare for all of them. As family and friends, the family is doing everything possible to help them directly with the kids and various things in this state of crisis and are trying, now that the shock has settled a little bit, to put together local fundraisers to give people an opportunity to help.
