Help Randy & Marianne Recover and Stay Afloat

Donation protected
My name is Hannah, and I’m raising funds to help my parents, Randy and Marianne, as they face a very difficult time. Just two days ago, my dad Randy broke his hip and had to undergo surgery. He’s now headed to rehab and will need a long recovery in a facility. This injury is part of a larger struggle—Randy has been having fainting spells and frequent falls, which have made it impossible for him to work. And after this injury, it’s pretty clear his days of working are over. My mom, Marianne, works as a librarian part-time and does everything she can, but it’s not always enough to cover all their expenses.

The medical bills from Randy’s surgery and rehab are already piling up, and my parents have already been struggling to make ends meet this year. They often have trouble paying for basic necessities like propane, groceries, and their regular bills. This situation has been incredibly hard on our family. Marianne is carrying a huge burden trying to keep everything afloat and deserves some respite from working as many hours as she can. As a teacher, I want to help more, but my own salary only goes so far. I’m reaching out because I’m tired of seeing them struggle and feeling helpless to make a difference.

Any support from our community would mean the world to us. Your help will go directly toward medical bills, daily living expenses, and giving my parents some peace of mind as they navigate this challenging time. Thank you for considering a donation and for sharing our story.
