<div>On Tuesday, January 14, 2025, Ryker Huff’s life changed forever. While on his way to work, Ryker’s pickup truck was struck by a semi on I-90 near Beloit, Wisconsin. This devastating accident left him with life-threatening injuries, a collapsed lung, and a severe traumatic brain injury known as Diffuse Axonal Injury (DAI) type III. He is currently in a self-induced coma and on life support at the UW-Madison Neurology ICU, fighting for his life.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Ryker is a loving and hardworking 26-year-old man with so much to live for. He recently shared the exciting news that he and his girlfriend, Marie, are expecting their first child—a baby girl Ryker has named Iris—on April 1, 2025. Together, they had just moved into a new apartment and were building a life filled with hope and love. This accident has turned their dreams into a battle for survival and recovery.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>His parents, DeAnna (Huff) and Louie Ricchio, Brad and Kim McClain, along with his sisters Ashton and Aby, his brother Cayden, and his girlfriend Marie, are all devastated but are standing strong by his side. Ryker’s journey to recovery will be a marathon, requiring extensive medical care, rehabilitation, and unwavering support from his loved ones.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>How You Can Help</strong>
</div>
<div>We are reaching out to family, friends, and the broader community to ask for your help. The funds raised through this campaign will go directly toward:
</div>
<div><strong>Medical Expenses:</strong> Covering hospital bills, co-payments, therapies, treatments, and specialized rehabilitation not fully covered by insurance.
</div>
<div><strong>Living Expenses:</strong> Assisting with rent, utilities, groceries, and other daily costs for Ryker and Marie as they prepare for their daughter’s arrival.
</div>
<div><strong>Family Support:</strong> Offsetting travel and lodging expenses for Ryker’s family as they commute to be by his side during this critical time.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>Why Your Support Matters</strong>
</div>
<div>This accident has left Ryker unable to work, and his girlfriend, Marie, needs rest before her due date and will require maternity leave after. The expenses are overwhelming, and the road ahead is uncertain. Every contribution will make a significant difference in helping this young family rebuild their lives.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Ryker is a fighter—a die-hard Packers fan who loves spending time with his nephews, friends, and family. With your support, we believe he can overcome this tragedy and work toward recovery, one step at a time.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Please consider donating to help alleviate the financial burden on Ryker’s family so they can focus on what matters most: his healing and preparing for the arrival of his baby girl. Every donation, no matter the size, brings hope and relief during this incredibly difficult time.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We thank you from the bottom of our hearts for your generosity, positive thoughts, and prayers. Please share this campaign to spread the word.
</div>
