February 4th, 2019

David Carmon, 53, of Gainesville was diagnosed with West Nile virus. He received care at Atlanta’s Shepherd Center, and he will require around-the-clock care at home. David and his wife Jessie, like many Georgia families, have turned to “crowdfunding” as a source of income to help pay for their sudden, huge medical expenses.

David Carmon’s body began to shut down just three days after a mosquito bite over Labor Day weekend. He arrived at a Gainesville emergency room extremely ill.

No one knew what was wrong.
