Giving Cole Her Wings Back

Donation protected

My close friend Cole loves skydiving and hopes to do at least one more jump... someday. (I refer to it as her redemption jump.)
She had trouble with the parachute on her last jump. Something got caught  on one side and she couldn't reach what she needed to to control her landing properly. Her parachute spun out of control very quickly to the ground. Severely injured but alive and greatful.
Her injuries include a broken right femur, left tibia & fibula, three breaks & a fracture to her pelvis and 8 fractured ribs. She was life flighted to OHSU Saturday (September 5th) where her recovery started out remarkably.
She is at home with her family now. Every day she's pushing to walk again. 
 Her partner Becca and son Parker are very supportive of Cole's efforts to get better and stay motivated to work at it whatever it takes. They're struggling financially while Cole isn't able to work. Her insurance doesn't cover paying for in home. I've been caring for her but I've got to get working again in order to care for my family too.  Lucky for me she's the fighter she is!
I'm trying to raise funds to replace Cole's income until she can work again and hopefully, help stablize things for the family with some much needed modifications around their house. 
Please help me get Cole what she needs to continue to heal and hold her family together through this extremely difficult time and create a more stable future for her family.

Thank you so much for reading Cole's story. Please like this and share it with your friends, and donate if you can. We would be so thankful.
