In an instant, everything changed. Following a tragic boating accident in Bear Lake, a devoted wife, loving mother of three, and cherished friend is facing a future she never could have imagined.

At the request of her family, we are honoring their wish to keep her identity private during this incredibly difficult time. During the accident, she was pulled beneath the boat and struck by the propeller, resulting in catastrophic injuries and the traumatic bilateral amputation of both of her legs.

She has already undergone multiple surgeries and remains hospitalized as she begins the long road of healing, rehabilitation, and rebuilding her life. She is the proud mother of three children, ages 16, 8, and 2. While she fights to recover, her husband, children, and loved ones are navigating the overwhelming emotional, physical, and financial challenges that come with a life-changing injury.

The road ahead will include continued medical care, rehabilitation, prosthetic limbs, home and vehicle modifications for accessibility, travel to and from the hospital, lodging near the hospital, lost income, childcare, and many unforeseen expenses.

Our hope is to ease as much of that burden as possible so this family can focus on what matters most: healing, recovery, and being together. This fundraiser has been created with the full support and permission of the family.

Every donation, regardless of the amount, will go directly toward helping meet both their immediate and long-term needs. Your generosity will help provide stability as they navigate the months and years ahead. If you are unable to give financially, the family simply asks that you keep this mother, her children, and everyone who loves them in your thoughts and prayers.

Your prayers, encouragement, and support mean more than words can express. Thank you for surrounding this family with compassion, generosity, and hope. Your kindness will help carry them through the difficult days ahead and remind them they are not facing this journey alone.
