David Vicars slipped off a roof a few days back and was severely injured. His leg is shattered. He has had one surgery and as soon as the swelling goes down enough he will have at least one more. The doctors can't say when he will be able to go back to work.
Dave’s in a lot of pain but like any of us this is David’s last worry (the pain).
Truthfully what I’m thinking about is how David’s going to take care of his family. None of us prepare for this day until it happens.
This is one of the cool things about being able to help Contractors in need.
I feel lucky today as I ran my business trouble free this week. It crosses my mind what would happen if I get hurt or I can’t work for some reason. Most think my business would run as usual, but that’s fantasy land. I would have problems, maybe not like Dave’s but I would need someone to step in and take charge. I’m fortunate today to help David anyway I can. It might sound selfish but I’m glad that I’m helping David instead of being in his shoes.
I ask all my friends and contractors around the world to donate to a fund started to help David and his family through this tough spell.
David’s always been a guy who would take anyone’s call and help them any way he could. David wouldn't ask for it so I'm asking for him.
If you don’t have the money to give please help by encouraging David by writing him or calling him.
For all who contribute to helping David, NCE will send you a Hat, Shirt or a Sticker.
At the End of this thread we will draw a prize to all who participated in the thread wishing Dave well for a 250.00 dollar cash prize from NCE. (One winner per Contest)
Guys the donations do not have to be large, please donate what you can. Everything David gets will be appreciated by him and his family.
I rarely ask for much, I’m asking you guys today show unity for David's family. Today is a day we can be proud to be in our profession. Stand by our brothers who need our help.
Does anyone have any kind of information on supplemental disability insurance. To replace income lost due to injury on the job.
Please look into this before an accident, those that climb roofs, I don't intend on walking a roof, but if I was forced to I would make sure I had a great insurance plan in place...
Be safe, it just takes a second, and everything has changed....
