Let's come together & support Kaydyn & his family

Donation protected
As many of you have heard, Kaydyn Riley was hit by a car while riding his bike and is currently in the ICU fighting for his life.  Anyone who knows Kaydyn, knows him for his huge heart and his ability to express his love for others.  Kaydyn is affectionate, sincere and wise beyond his years.  Kaydyn is a fighter; he is so strong - he will make it through this, however he and his family will be faced with challenges which no one can predict the specifics of at this time.  He is currently being accessed every couple of hours  and only Melissa (his mom) is allowed to stay there with him.  Kaydyn's father, Dave, is able to visit but is spending most of his time at home caring for Jaynee (Kaydyn's little sister) during this unimaginable time.   By creating this fund, we were hoping to allow for the family to have one less thing to worry about as well as allow for a fund to fall back on as things come up.  Melissa is known as a giver and has never been one to accept anything from others so this "go fund me" is a bit uncomfortable for her.  She is taking things moment by moment and feels blessed with the amount of support they have received from family, friends, acquaintances, community members and the team at UVMMC who have provided words of encouragement, prayers and positive thoughts.  Keep them coming- it's working!!!!  We are all so thankful to the first responders who were at the scene almost immediately and the medical team at UVMMC for quality of medical care he is currently receiving.   If you would like to provide some type of support and are unable to donate, please reach out to me and I can make arrangements.  Thank you all for your love and support with this truly amazing family!
