Mad Props Fabrication LLC Raffle to benefit Paramedic Robert Owsiak
Robert Owsiak is a Lorain County paramedic.
Bob’s 41st birthday was supposed to be a celebration with family at Kalahari Resorts. Instead, it became the start of a life-changing medical emergency.
On March 12, 2026, after going down a body slide, Bob suddenly lost movement on the left side of his body. He was rushed to UH Elyria Medical Center, where doctors quickly discovered a mass on the right side of his brain. That same night, he was transferred to UH Cleveland Medical Center for urgent care.
The following day brought even more devastating news—additional masses were found on his kidney and both lungs.
On March 19, Bob underwent brain surgery, and doctors were able to successfully remove the entire brain mass. While this is a huge step forward, his fight is far from over. He now faces radiation, immunotherapy, and extensive ongoing treatment.
Bob is more than a patient—he is a dedicated paramedic who has spent over 20 years answering the call, helping others on their worst days. Now, he and his family need that same support.
As a father of four, Bob’s focus has always been providing for and protecting his children. With mounting medical bills, time away from work, and the long road to recovery ahead, the financial burden is overwhelming.
