Support Brady's Road to Recovery

Hi,

My name is Beau Lawrence.

11 years ago, my wife Yasmin and I moved to our small town of Carpinteria, California to raise our daughters and build our business, Ace Rivington.

As a young (and busy) dad, I wanted to introduce our family to a simple pet...so I bought a fish.

Brady sold me the fish at our local pet store, and Brady sold me another fish (that looked just like it) when I accidentally killed the first one).

After the pet store, Brady became our regular shipping guy at the UPS store, when we were still shipping Ace Rivington goods out of our garage.

A couple of years after we started working with Brady at the UPS store, we were lucky to bring him on board at Ace Rivington...where he helped us build stores, deliver lots of packages, and create many great experiences for folks visiting our shop from all over the world.

A few years back Brady started a new Monday to Friday gig as a swimming pool technician in town...but he's been there in the shop consistently almost every Sunday since.

Today is Brady's 34th birthday.

Last Wednesday Brady had a brain aneurism and was rushed to the hospital by his mom for emergency brain surgery.

Fortunately, Brady was at home where he lives with his mom (an incredible 5th grade teacher recently retired from the school where both of our daughters have attended), and Mrs. Bingham was able to quickly get him to the hospital.

Brady will spend close to 2 weeks total in the ICU, and then the plan with improvement is for him to continue to be observed at the hospital for some time.

This definitely throws a big wrench in Brady and his mom's life...and it's going to be a serious path ahead for recovery, not to mention the financial pressures created in the short term.

I'm reaching out to ask for support.

I've created a GoFundMe for Brady, and his mom will be the beneficiary for the funds as she'll be managing his hospital bills, recovery, and Brady's path ahead.

Thanks for anything you can contribute, including positive thoughts and prayers for Brady and his recovery.

Beau
