My best friend Mary’s world changed suddenly when a medical emergency left her- a devoted wife and mother- with a severe spinal injury that resulted in paralysis. Since October, she has been receiving intensive, specialized medical care out of state, far from home, as doctors work to stabilize her condition and support her long-term recovery.

During this time, her husband Drew has remained by her side while trying to hold everything together—managing travel, temporary housing, medical expenses, and the ongoing costs of daily life back home. The length and complexity of her treatment have placed an overwhelming financial strain on their family, with lost income and mounting expenses continuing to grow.

We are asking for support to help cover medical bills, rehabilitation, extended lodging and travel, accessibility needs, and basic living expenses as this family navigates an unthinkable chapter and begins planning for a new way forward. Every donation, share, and kind word helps lift a burden and reminds them they are not alone. Thank you for your compassion and generosity.
