Hi, my name is Toby, and I’m fundraising on behalf of my wife, Laura.

In July 2025, Laura suffered a stroke that completely changed our lives.

Before this happened, she was working in an incredibly demanding role — constantly context-switching, making decisions under pressure, and pushing through, even when her body was telling her to slow down. And no, that role wasn’t even that of being my wife!

She’s one of the strongest people I know, but the stress eventually caught up with her.

The stroke left her with weakness on her left side, cognitive challenges, and a long road to recovery ahead. She spent time in the hospital, and now she’s in a rehabilitation program focused on helping her regain strength, coordination, and clarity. Recovery will take months of therapy, healing, and time away from work.

Why We’re Asking for Help

We’re raising money to help cover:

✅ Physical, occupational, and cognitive therapy not fully covered by insurance

✅ Medical bills from her hospital stay, which included time in the ICU

✅ Loss of income while Laura is unable to work

✅ Basic living expenses while she heals

✅ Mobility equipment and safety accommodations for our home

This Has Been Overwhelming

Watching someone you love go through something like this is heartbreaking. Laura is fighting to get better every day, but the financial stress adds an entirely new level of pressure, one she doesn’t deserve while trying to heal.

That’s why I’m reaching out for help.

If you’re able to donate, thank you from the bottom of our hearts. If you can’t contribute financially, please consider sharing this campaign with others. Every act of support — no matter how small — gives Laura hope and brings us closer to stability.

Thank you for standing with us during this incredibly difficult time. We’ll continue to post updates here as Laura continues her recovery.

With deep gratitude,

Toby
