Let's get Pat back on his feet

I am reaching out in regards to our colleague, Pat Gordon. Many of you know Pat and his partner, Charlie Saini - both are valued members of our Carleton family.

For a month now, Pat has been experiencing severe health issue that have significantly impacted his daily life. While doctors believe it may be thyroid-related, the symptoms have been debilitating, preventing him from eating, moving and keeping awake for longer than an hour or two each day.

I know that Pat is eager to return to work and reconnect with his team and students. He is now in the hands of the Mayo Clinic and we are all hopeful that Pat will have answers and a treatment plan soon. To help him and Charlie through this challenging time, I am reaching out to our community for financial support. Any contribution, no matter the size, will be greatly appreciated.

Thank you for your generosity and compassion!
