Support Fitz's Mom’s (Cindy's) Recovery

Dear Scottie IG Community and Supporters:

Requesting your compassion, empathy and generosity in helping one of the pillars of our Scottie IG Community - Fitz's mom, Cindy - during a very challenging time.

Cindy has been struggling with long COVID, which has severely impacted her physical, mental and emotional health and ability to work. Cindy experiences daily debilitating fatigue, shortness of breath and cognitive impairment, making it difficult to carry out daily activities and perform even the simplest tasks. Long Covid gave Cindy CFS/ME, PEM (post exertional malaise), fibromyalgia and POTS. Recently, Cindy lost her job without severance, leaving her without financial stability.

Many of us know Cindy for her humour, positivity and boundless generosity - in addition to sharing Fitz's antics, she has a long history of raising funds for multiple local causes. Cindy even founded the Long COVID Collective, a supportive community for long haulers, allies, caretakers and volunteers to serve as a source of strength and solidarity for individuals impacted by long COVID. Now, we're making a heartfelt request to help Cindy.

YOUR GENEROUS SUPPORT will help Cindy cover medical expenses, daily living costs, care for Fitz and any other financial burden Cindy may face during this difficult period so Cindy can focus her energy on her recovery and adapting to her new normal.

With gratitude,

Rachel (Emmylou's Mom) & Jackie (Max's Mom)
