<div>Our family received devastating news this week.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>My brother-in-law, Kevin ("Coach Kevin" to many in our community), was rushed to the emergency room earlier this week after months of declining health. Doctors discovered a large tumor in his chest that is putting dangerous pressure on his heart and lungs. He is currently hospitalized at the University of Michigan with poor blood flow, low oxygen, and elevated blood pressure. He is scheduled for emergency surgery to place a stent in his heart, and that's just the first step.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>A biopsy was performed earlier this week, and we are anxiously awaiting answers. While we don't know yet what type of tumor Kevin has, we do know that the road ahead will involve extensive medical care, time away from work, and significant financial challenges.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Kevin has spent his life serving others - coaching, mentoring, encouraging, and showing up for people when they needed him most. Now it's our turn to show up for him.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We’re aiming to raise $50k to cover an extended time off of work and medical bills for months ahead, for Kevin and his wife Brittany.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>What Comes Next</strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Regardless of what the biopsy reveals, Kevin is facing a long road ahead. He will be unable to work for an extended period - through active treatment and into recovery.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>His wife Brittany has been with him every step of the way as his dedicated advocate and caregiver. But that means Brittany will also need to step back from her own work to be there for Kevin - managing appointments, medications, and everything in between that comes with caring for someone you love through a serious illness.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>In addition to these challenges, Kevin’s union health insurance coverage is based on an hour bank system - meaning he may not have it for much longer.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>That leaves this family - which includes their beloved pups Oakley and Rex - facing significant financial need.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>Your donation will help cover:</strong>
</div>
<ul>
<li>Medical expenses not covered by insurance
</li>
<li>Mortgage, utilities, and household bills
</li>
<li>Travel to and from University of Michigan medical appointments
</li>
<li>Daily living expenses during treatment and recovery
</li>
<li>Lost income while Kevin and Brittany are unable to work normally
</li>
</ul>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Every contribution, no matter the size, will make a meaningful difference.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Outside of providing financial support, if you're local and want to help with errands, yard work, or meals, please reach out directly to Brittany.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>Rally for Coach Kevin</strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>If you've ever been coached by Kevin, worked with him, learned from him, or called him a friend, we ask that you keep him in your prayers and consider sharing this fundraiser.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Thank you for your love, support, and generosity during this difficult and heartbreaking time.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><em>We will post updates here as we learn more about Kevin's condition and treatment plan.</em>
</div>
