Hi All,
We're reaching out to support our dear mate Connor Rogers, who recently suffered a shocking knee dislocation injury on the footy field just over 3 weeks ago.
This isn't just your typical footy injury - Rog hyperextended his knee causing a knee dislocation, as well as rupturing his ACL and PCL, and suffering blood loss and nerve damage causing complications with his foot and calf muscle.
This has led to over 10 surgeries on his leg so far, with doctors even warning of the terrifying possibility of leg amputation.
Thanks to Rogey's incredible resilience (and the great medical team at the Alfred), it's looking like he will keep his leg - but the road ahead is long, painful and uncertain.
Given the severity of the injury and the mulitple surgeries, Rog will be unable to work for the foreseeable future, and is now facing mounting medical bills, physical therapy and basic living expenses without a steady income.
Anyone who knows Rog knows how strong, determined and positive he is. He's always been the first to help others - now it's our turn to help him.
We're raising funds to help cover:
- Ongoing medical bills and rehab
- Rent, food and essential living expenses
- Mobility and recovery equipment
Every donation, no matter how small, brings Rog closer to healing and gives him one less thing to worry about during this incredibly difficult time.
Please donate if you can, and share this with your network.
Your support really means the world to him.
Thank you and much love.
