Help HOPE Live for Col. Arthur J. Bilenker

Your Help Can Make the Difference!

On July 3, 2017, Arthur Bilenker was injured by his truck and transported to University Hospital, where he was diagnosed with and treated for an incomplete C5 and C6 Spinal Cord Injury. At the time of injury, he was paralyzed from the chest down and has not regained any function. After three weeks in the ICU, he was transported to the Kessler Institute for Rehabilitation, where he continues to work daily towards healing. It is unclear what the long term physical outcome of his accident will be. Prior to his injury, Arthur was planning to retire from dentistry after over 25 years in practice. Following retirement, he planned to continue serving as Colonel and State Dental Officer with the New York Army National Guard; teach and mentor students at Rutgers; remain active in the NJ Dental Association; and take extended walks with his dog, Mowgli.

Or, since you are here, you can go directly to his campaign.Art gave to his community selflessly. I hope you can find it in your hearts to continue to support him. We are trying to keep him safely at home and care for him there as long as possible. We humbly request your help.Teri
