Support Cody's Emergency Brain Surgery and Medical Bills

Donation protected
Update 4/22/25
Cody came home on 4/12 after being in the hospital over a week. He seemed to be recovering but then took a turn for the worse. The abscess in his brain had grown even larger than it was originally. On Saturday 4/19 he had to take another flight for life to Denver and have another brain surgery. We hope there will be no further complications. Cody for now is recovering but likely will need to stay at Children's Hospital through this week.

Between medical bills and Nate being unable to work for several weeks, he needs all the help he can get. I have raised the donation amount to $50,000 which still won't come close to cover all the expenses. Again, any monetary support you can give is greatly appreciated.

Hi, I'm a friend of Nate and his soon-to-be 15-year-old son, Cody. I met them when I moved to Durango a little over a year ago.

While I don't know a lot of his friends and family, I do know that
Nate is always the first person to offer help to a friend or loved one, but he's the last person who will ever ask for it, so I'm asking for him! If you can give any financial assistance, no matter how big or small to help with his son's medical bills, I know it would be such a huge help and mean so much to him! Cody had to be flown to Denver for emergency brain surgery after a sinus infection spread into his brain. He will remain in the hospital in Denver for up to a week. Medical bills for this are going to be really expensive. Thank you for whatever you can give.
