Jon Merrell was diagnosed with ALS in late August. As many know, this diagnosis is complicated because of his background with a traumatic brain injury and neck/spine trauma from being struck by a car while riding his bicycle to work about three years ago.

Lindsey and Jon were told to “take the trips you’ve dreamed about now” - as his mobility will soon be impacted, and traveling will become difficult. While his diagnosis is confirmed, with ALS the timeline can be complicated. With the upcoming changes to Jon’s health, his work life and home life will be financially impacted.

The road ahead for this family is daunting, and to provide them an opportunity to spend quality time together in a dream location will be the gift of a lifetime.

Funds provided will be gifted to the Merrells to take that dream trip - Lindsey said Hawaii was a top destination. Anything leftover can be used at their discretion as they plan for the upcoming changes in their lives. Please help support them in this time of great need.
