Help Cayla get to the Tokyo Para-Olympics 2021

Donation protected
20 year old Cayla has been such an inspiration to all that know her.  Her amazing strength and fortitude in the challenges that she has faced since being diagnosed with Cancer, makes you realise that you are in the presence of someone truly remarkable, and that nothing has stopped her from reaching for her dream of going to the Olympics. After being classified as a Para Rider due to only having 1/3 use of her left arm after surgery, chemotherapy and radiation at Primary Children's Hospital, she made sure to got to the qualifying FEI shows, and made her dream come true.  She has made her home in Ocala, Florida and has qualified to compete at the Tokyo Para Olympics in August this year.
The funds will be used  to fly her horse Daturo II, her Trainer Trisha Bell and herself, from Florida, USA,  to Leige, Belgium then on to  Aachen, Germany, for quarantine, including accomodation while in quarantine. Thereafter,  on return to Europe from Tokyo, we need to fly them all back to Florida, USA.
We are needing the funds urgently, as they are hoping to leave on the 7th August 2021.
As her parents, we will go to the ends of the earth to try and make her dream a reality, as she has faced and overcome so much in her young life,  and has put her heart and soul into making her dream come true.
We would be eternally grateful for any assistance to help her achieve her  dream, which was her motivation when going through the hardest times in her life.
