As some may know, my son, our dear friend & family member Donald Class, has been involved in a terrible incident where he was shot in the abdomen. In a moment, everything changed. What followed has been days filled with fear, hospital stays and an overwhelming amount of uncertainty as we focus on helping him heal - physically, emotionally and mentally. He remains at the hospital, in and out of surgery and the ICU, as the Doctors work hard to get him back home to us.

Donald Class is a strong, kind soul with so much life ahead of him. Right now, his strength is being tested in ways no one should ever have to endure. While he continues to fight and recover, our family is facing mounting medical expenses, ongoing care needs, and the reality of lost income, while we remain by his side. As everyone knows, just because the income comes to a sudden halt, it does not mean the bills and responsibilities do.

This situation has created enough stress for Donald and our family. We are asking for any help to ease the financial burden so we can focus fully on what matters most - Donald's recovery and healing. Funds raised will go towards:

*Medical and hospital expenses

*Follow-up care, rehabilitation and medications

*Travel, lodging and daily necessities during recovery

*Basic living expenses while care giving takes priority

Any donation - no matter the amount - means more than words can express. If you're unable to give, please consider sharing this fundraiser and keeping my son in your thoughts & prayers.

Thank you, from the bottom of our hearts, for your kindness, support and compassion during this incredibly difficult time,

Donald's loving family
