Cody Doyle’s life Support

On Tuesday, February 28th at approximately 2:30 AM, tragedy fell upon our Southern California community. Our beloved Cody Doyle, also known as Ari Mirage, was on his way home from a performance when he lost control of his vehicle, ran off the road, and consequently hit a tree.

Cody was taken to Palomar medical center where he was immediately admitted to the ICU with 3 skull fractures, a brain bleed, a broken clavicle, and various soft tissue injuries. Following 2 CT scans, Cody’s neurosurgeon determined a craniotomy was necessary to relieve pressure on his brain.

Although Cody is still unconscious and on a ventilator, he is showing signs of improvement and relatively stable. Cody will remain in the ICU for the foreseeable future and has an extremely long and difficult road to recovery ahead of him. Cody does not currently have insurance and our focus is on raising enough funds for him and his family so that medical care is never an issue.

For those of you have yet to have the pleasure of meeting Cody or see Ari perform in the Hillcrest area—here is a bit more about them

Cody is a 28 yo fallbrook resident who has spent his entire life in Southern California. Cody is the son of Stacy Doyle-Grisham and Danny Connelly and the brother of Taylor doyle. Cody identified as a gender bending barbie and between oceanside, carlsbad, and hillcrest, he’s known for his drag persona Ari Mirage.

Cody absolutely adores drag and truly is his fiercest, brightest self when he’s performing. He is simply the sweetest, sassiest, caring, and most authentic person around. Cody has never been afraid to be himself and will go to the ends of the earth to serve a look. His passion for hair, makeup, and fashion truly sets his spirit on fire.

Anyone you ask will tell you Cody is truly one of a kind, and deserves all of the love and support our community is capable of. Please join us in donating to Cody’s medical fund.
