I don't want to give away too much about their personal lives, but I know money isn't an issue with them at the moment. Although I'm sure there's other ways to help like luv was suggesting, but it's hard to get a good feel for the situation from here. I'm hoping to go down to watch the game with him on Sunday and see if anything jumps out to me. I know I kinda shot luv's ideas down but it's not because they were bad in any way, I'm totally open to ideas.

I’ve been over their place twice with Mr BUgeater. Great people, and Mrs Nzoner gave me a personal tour of her nascar room. Been praying for both of them.

A meal service that doesn't take much to prepare would probably be perfect, or just showing up with a bunch of food. Anything to make life a little easier. |

Okay, didn't take too much investigation to learn that meals are an issue for him. So here's my plan:
I am going down on Sunday to visit with him and watch the game. The Mrs and I will to do some grocery shopping prior to that and possibly prepare some meals for him as well for me to deliver to him. Here's how you can help: I need food ideas: After his heart issues earlier this year, he is on a heart healthy diet. Low fat and low sodium. This is a bit out of my wheelhouse so if anyone has suggestions for food or meals, please post them here. Please keep meal suggestions simple, we're willing to spend some time preparing things but we can't spend 4 hours making a heart healthy version of Duck a l'orange. You can donate: If you want to kick in some money to help cover grocery costs I certainly will welcome that. PM me for details. For transparency's sake I will post a list of donors in this thread, but you can remain anonymous if you wish. I will also provide photos of what I buy plus receipts so there's no questions about where your money went. I do have a couple other ideas I am pursuing as well, just need to figure out if there's a way to bring them to fruition. More on that later. |

I'm in for however you think it will work best, but would a meal delivery be a little more sustainable in the long run? I guess I'm not sure they deliver everywhere, but Sunbasket does fully-prepared meals (just pop them in the microwave), so that could be an option. They run maybe $14/meal, so it's not dirt cheap, but they're a hell of a lot better than frozen dinners and far less packed with salt.
Googling around, I also see a place called Mom's Meals, which has a low-sodium menu. More like $7/meal, so I'd guess it'll be a little lower quality, but it's another option. Either way, PM on the way. |

Figure it's worth sticking this for a little bit at least.

I was just thinking about meals like a lasagna he could freeze and pop in the oven. Leftovers on that for a few days. I know Joe isn't 100%, so cleaning, laundry, errand running may be difficult. There are several companies down here that provide such services that don't fall under health care.
