Help Aaron rebuild - PTSD & disability emergency funds

Donation protected
Dear friends, family, and compassionate supporters,

Life is unpredictable. At its best, it can inspire joy, connection, and hope. But when the challenges pile up, it can test even the strongest among us. For me the past few years have been filled with unimaginable challenges, and I am reaching out to ask for your support during this difficult time.

Living with autoimmune disorders and PTSD has already meant navigating a very complex and constantly exhausting journey. These conditions bring not only physical limitations but also significant medical costs and emotional struggles. But recently, a devastating incident occurred that has made an already uphill climb even steeper: Aaron was the victim of aggravated assault and battery. This violent act has left him not only physically injured for several months but also emotionally shaken, compounding the already heavy burdens he is under.

Despite these circumstances, Aaron has shown remarkable courage and determination to keep moving forward. But as anyone who has faced hardships like these can tell you, recovery is not a path to walk alone. The costs associated with medical care, therapy, and basic living needs have piled up, creating an overwhelming situation that no one should have to face alone. That’s why we’re launching this fundraiser—to ask for the support of Aaron 's amazing community to help lighten this load and make recovery possible.

Here’s how your generous contributions will make a difference:

Medical Expenses: Treatments, medications, and consultations for autoimmune conditions, along with care for PTSD and injuries resulting from the recent assault.

Therapy and Rehabilitation: Critical mental health support, counseling, and physical therapy to aid in the journey toward healing.

Daily Living Expenses: Covering essential bills, groceries, and other necessities while Aaron focuses on recovery.

Rebuilding Stability: This support will contribute to offering a sense of security and hope in what has been an incredibly unstable and painful time.

Our goal is to raise $7,500 to ensure Aaron can receive the care and support he needs without the constant debilitating extra stress of financial strain. Any amount, no matter how small, will make a meaningful impact—and if you’re unable to donate, sharing this fundraiser with your friends, family, and social networks will help us reach even more kind and generous people.

Aaron is a beacon of resilience, but resilience alone can’t solve every problem. By coming together as a community, we can help restore some hope, strength, and stability in his life. Let’s rally around and remind him that no matter how dark the days, there’s a whole world of people willing to stand together in unity and support!

Thank you for your kindness, generosity, and support during this challenging time. Together, we can help reclaim the brighter days ahead.

With heartfelt gratitude, Aaron Rhys
