Hi, my name is Tash I am raising funds for my brother Reece and his Family.
If you know Reece or have seen him on Heavy Tow Truckers Down Under you know a man who has never backed away from a big job.
As a heavy tow trucker his life was defined by the road, the rig and the hook and haul but his most important roll is at home with his partner Becky and their beautiful children and Grandchildren.
For years Reece has been the first call when someone is stuck, broken down or in a ditch. Now Reece is the one who needs a lift.
Recently, Reece's life took a turn we never saw coming when a catastrophic injury happened.
Reece survived two extensive seven-hour operations but despite his amazing surgeons best-efforts Reece is now paralyzed from his chest down.
This is a heavy load for anyone to carry but Reece is a fighter and now faces his toughest recovery mission yet.
Reece can handle the chair (he can drive anything), but he can't handle the bills right now.
To get PopPop home to his beloved family we need to completely refit his life for the new road ahead.

Reece is a very proud and hardworking man and asking for help doesn't come easy to him.
So, I am reaching out to family and friends, our hometown Wagga Wagga and the trucking community/Brotherhood for support.
Any donation or share on social media or messages of support will be a massive help and so gratefully appreciated.
No donation is too small!
Donations will go toward home modifications, ramps and remodeling bathrooms New Rig's wheelchairs and equipment that are suited to Reece's new normal and Bills Helping Becky and the family cover medical bills, daily expenses and travel while they remain by Reece's side during his long stay in Sydney in hospital.
