Kevin is 58 years old and has always been the rock of our small family. He was not only a wonderful father, but also my best friend and one of my biggest inspirations. He taught me so much in such a short time, instilling in me the discipline and work ethic that shaped who I am today. Without his influence, I truly don’t know where I’d be.

Recently, Kevin suffered a massive stroke at home and wasn’t found for two days. The stroke left him paralyzed on the entire left side of his body. While hospitalized, he had to undergo a cranium surgery and now needs to wear a helmet whenever he’s not in bed. It’s heartbreaking to see someone who was always so strong and capable now facing such difficult challenges.

With the help of this GoFundMe, we hope to give Kevin the chance to regain some independence. The funds will go towards purchasing a stand up track chair, allowing him to move freely around our home and property, garden, be outdoors, and spend time with our livestock. His caregivers—his son and daughter-in-law—want nothing more than to see him adapt and thrive in a wheelchair, rather than feeling stuck or left out. Your support will make a world of difference for Kevin and our family.
