Both suffer from cardiomyopathy, a serious heart defect. To treat the condition, both were to receive a left ventricular assist device, which will help keep their hearts pumping. The devices will likely serve as "bridges" to heart transplants for the men.

A GoFundMe campaign has been launched to assist the brothers, who have missed work due to their ongoing medical issues.
