From Gary:

For those who do not know, my brother Charles was struck from behind by a taxi and is awaiting surgery in Italy.

As things keep getting worse for him, I am flying there to be with him and Lisa

So, they are not alone.

Unlike, what the internet says I am not rich and neither is my family.

And with medical bills piling up and with my brother not able to work for months we are starting this gofundme to help with his expenses.

Every bit helps and is beyond appreciated.

Please, donate if you can and please share the link

Thanks and love to all 

 

 Hey everyone, my name is Gary Holt, thrash guitarist for Exodus and formerly for Slayer. My brother on May 6 while on the first day of a solo vacation in Rome, was struck from behind by a taxi, resulting in a broken femur that is in need of surgery. The taxi driver actually put him in the taxi and dropped him off at the hosipital. We aren't even sure if we will find out the who and what of all this. He spent three days on a gurney in a hallway awaiting even a real bed, alone. Unable to truly communicate with the staff. My wife has flown out there to be with him, she is having the same issues navigating and communicating, but at least my brother is not alone. I fly out as well on Friday to be there for my brother and to help my wife Lisa who is very nervous being alone hersefl there. The costs have been enormous to the family and to Charles and he hasn't had the surgery yet, and he cannot fly home until he does. We hope sooner rather than later. I am not wealthy, unlike what the internet says, far from it, I have no more income that any blue collar worker. My brother will not be able to work for months, he has had a rough life but turned it around years ago, saves all him money working at a coffee shop and recycling, to go on these trips, to live again. This nightmare get's worse ,whenever there's a glimmer of good news, another road block. Please get him home and help him get well.
