Help Amy Ratliff Recover and Rebuild
Goal: $18,000
Date of Event: November 11, 2024

Dear Friends, Family, and Supporters,

On Sunday, November 11, 2024, Amy Ratliff, a loving wife, mother, and tireless community leader, survived three small strokes. Thanks to the quick thinking of her devoted husband, who immediately called EMS and rushed her to the emergency room, Amy is on the road to a full recovery. We are incredibly grateful that Amy’s life was spared, and her prognosis is positive, but this sudden health event has created a huge financial burden on her and her family.
As many of you know, Amy has worked for years in both the service industry and education system, always going above and beyond to support businesses, mentor others, and inspire those around her. Whether through counseling or encouraging others to push past their limits and live their best lives, Amy has been a guiding light to so many. Now, it is our turn to support her during this difficult time.

Why We Need Your Help
Amy is currently unable to return to work as she focuses on her recovery. As the main breadwinner for her family, this leaves her household without the income they rely on. In addition to the immediate costs associated with her four-day hospital stay, Amy will need ongoing care and treatment to ensure a full recovery. Medical expenses are already adding up and are expected to exceed $13,000. On top of that, Amy has lost valuable wages, and we are seeking to raise $5,000 to cover this loss and help her and her family through this challenging period.

The breakdown of the funds needed is as follows:
$5,000 for lost wages (Amy is the primary earner in her family)
$13,000 for medical expenses, including her hospital stay, treatment, and future recovery costs

How You Can Help
Amy has always given her time, heart, and energy to help others. Now, we ask that you consider supporting her in her time of need. Any contribution—whether large or small—will make a huge difference and allow her to focus on her recovery without the added stress of financial hardship.
Additionally, if you are unable to contribute financially, we ask that you share this campaign with your friends and family or offer words of encouragement. Your support, in any form, will be greatly appreciated.

A Note from Amy’s Family:
"We are deeply thankful to everyone who has reached out, prayed, and shown support during this time. Amy is a fighter, and with the love and care from all of you, we are confident she will recover fully. The financial burden on her family right now is overwhelming, but knowing that we have a community behind us helps ease some of the stress. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for any help you can provide."

Thank You
Your generosity will allow Amy the time and peace of mind she needs to heal fully and return to doing what she loves—helping others. On behalf of Amy and her family, thank you for your kindness and support. We are incredibly grateful for each of you.
Together, we can help Amy take the next step in her recovery journey.
With gratitude,
The Ratliff Dekle Family
