A GoFundMe page for a two-year-old boy shot by his father last week has raised thousands of dollars to help pay for the boys medical bills.
According to a GoFundMe page set up for two-year-old Ryker, over $27, 000 has been raised since the shooting last Tuesday.
Since then, he's been at Mott Children's Hospital in Ann Arbor in critical condition.
According to the GoFundMe page, Ryker has undergone at least five surgeries to repair his face, hand, arm and lungs.
He reportedly has another surgery scheduled to repair his hand Tuesday.
Prosecutors say Ryker was shot in the face with a shotgun by his father outside his home in the four-hundred block of Barrett Avenue in Blackman Township last Tuesday afternoon.
Prosecutors say the two-year-old was intentionally shot following an argument between his mother and father while he was strapped in a car seat in the back of his mother's car.
According to the GoFundMe page, while Ryker was recovering from the first round of surgeries he started a fever.
The page says he has since broke that fever but had issues with his heart rate and breathing.
It says doctors were able to get it back to normal but they're concerned to what caused it to drop and are going to do further tests.
The man accused of shooting Ryker is currently in jail being held on 10 million dollars bond.
He's due in court next month.
According to the GoFundMe page, Ryker's family has set up a PO Box for people to send cards and letters to him.
