Hello, my name is AErin Graves and I, along with lots of other family friends, am helping to raise funds for Trina Schueller and her family. They have had a devastating start to the school year. Many of you know that about two years ago Carter broke his leg while playing in a football game. Unfortunately, it looked as though that nightmare would repeat this fall as well. On September 10, Connor along with the varsity football team traveled to the Sault for a Friday night game. That weekend Connor began feeling a bit sick. He ended up staying home from school for a total of two weeks. Thursday September 16, Carter and the JV football team had a game at home against Benzie. Unfortunately during that game, Carter was injured. What the family thought was a dislocated hip, turned out to be a fractured hip socket. This meant an air lift to DeVos where Carter was admitted and tested positive for COVID, although asymptomatic. Mike and Trina traveled down to DeVos to be with Carter while Connor still struggled with sickness at home. During the hospital stay post surgery, Mike and Trina also started to develop some COVID like symptoms as well. Fast forward to Carter being back home with his family, feeling pretty good health wise aside from the hip fracture. Connor is still sick, Mike is sick, and Trina is now feeling really sick. Trina’s sister and husband who are in the process of building a new house, have been staying in their camper on the Schueller’s property, have been helping out a lot. On Saturday morning September 25th at 4 in the morning Pam drove Trina to the hospital. Since then, Trina has been admitted, and been treated for COVID pneumonia. As we all know too well, COVID hits everyone differently. Unfortunately, it has taken a huge toll on Trina and the entire Schueller family. Trina has now been in the hospital for 12 days without an end in site. She is currently under medical sedation and on a ventilator to help put oxygen back into her bloodstream. She has been able to be woken up and answer yes and no questions quickly and also continues to demonstrate positive vital checks. Although we have been told she has a LONG road ahead, her nurses seem positive and encouraged by the amount of progress she has made thus far. When she is able to come home, it is going to be quite the recovery process. Though the family does have insurance, both Mike and Trina have been unable to work for a few weeks. They could use financial support along with LOTS and LOTS of prayers. Please continue with prayers and well wishes and if you are able, any donation amount will be greatly appreciated and helpful. Kingsley is a phenomenal community to live in. When things get hard and someone needs help, we pull through. Believe me, my family and I know all too well. Please help the Schueller family any way you can. We thank you all so very much,

❤️ The Family and Friends of Trina, Mike, Connor and Carter Schueller
