My daughter, Alyssa Shade, was in a car accident on 6/21/25. She was injured with spinal fractures that required surgery to stabilize her spine. She will be released from the hospital on 6/25/25 to continue her recovery.

There are some things needed to help her recovery go more smoothly. First, one of her shepherd dogs, Ares, will need to be boarded with a K9 trainer who has worked with him specifically and can handle his special needs. This will cost approximately $640 for 3 weeks.

Another need is for a new mattress for Alyssa's bed. She was already in need of a new one, but since this injury, she definitely should have a new one to aid in her continued healing.
