Help Christian Fund His MCL Surgery

Hello everyone!

I'm sure many of you have heard, but our teammate and friend, Christian Thyron, has suffered every footballer's worst nightmare with a Grade Three MCL Tear.

This news came just days after his birthday, which only really meant worse news, being removed from his parent's health insurance and having to buy one's own plan. And like any healthy and active young adult, he purchased a plan that had high deductibles but lower premiums..No Bueno.

After some research and contemplation, Christian voiced to me that the main obstacle was the financial piece, to cover $6k (deductible) and then 35% of the remaining costs. The surgery will cost roughly 10-15k.

I asked Christian if money wasn't an option would he consider surgery or was there another reason as to why he wanted to opt out of it, and in his own words "In a heartbeat, I would schedule my surgery tomorrow if I could"

Like many of us, asking for help can sometimes be uncomfortable, especially when that help is in monetary form. Christian has no idea that this is being made, nor did he ask for it to happen. I raise the question, if it were myself or you in this situation, wouldn't you want a friend or a teammate to do the same?

Let’s get this man back in his 4” inseam shorts so he can ball out on the court and on pitch once again!

Thank You.
