Support for Recovery and Family Connection

We Need Your Help!




While visiting Washington, D.C., something unexpected happened—my fiancée, Emily, tragically fell and broke her hip. She was immediately admitted to Inova Alexandria Hospital, where she underwent hip surgery. Now, she’s receiving care at George Washington Health & Rehab in Alexandria, where she’ll be for about six weeks.


We are far from home, and as a Disabled Veteran with a Service-Connected Disability, I’m struggling to stay near Emily during this difficult time. Unfortunately, I am unable to stay at the rehab facility with her, like I could at the hospital. Hotel costs in the area are beyond my reach, and we don’t know anyone locally who could help.


We’re in need of financial support to cover the costs of my stay, food, and essentials while I continue to care for Emily as she recovers. Your generosity will also help us get her the things she needs—clothes for the colder weather, loose-fitting garments that won’t irritate her hip, and help with mounting medical bills, medications, and other necessary expenses.


Any amount of help is greatly appreciated. You can donate directly through GoFundMe or through CashApp at $AidenDKirchner. Your support means the world to us, and we are deeply grateful for any assistance you can provide.



Now, a little about Emily—she is the love of my life. Emily is the first person to ever truly accept me as I am, without wanting to change a single thing. She loves me for who I am and has always been my greatest source of support. Her heart is pure gold, and her love has brought so much light into my life. She is incredibly kind, sweet, and caring—always there to lift me up, no matter how tough things get. I feel like the luckiest person in the world to call her mine, and I can’t wait to spend the rest of my life showing her the love she deserves.


Thank you in advance for your kindness and generosity.

This woman right here is the love of my life. Emily is the first woman to ever treat me right. She's the first woman ever who hasn't tried to change me, she loves me for me and doesn't want to change me because she loves who I am. She is the first person who has actually truly cared about my feelings and about my health and my mental health and to care if I am okay or not. She is so amazing, so wonderful, so sweet, so kind, so caring, so kindhearted and I am beyond blessed to have her in my life. She has brought so much light into my world, even on the darkest days. Emily has a heart of gold, and her love is the most genuine, pure thing I've ever experienced. She stands by my side through everything, supporting me, encouraging me, and making me feel like the luckiest person in the world. I don’t know how I got so lucky, but I’m forever grateful to call her mine. She is my rock, my peace, and my everything. I can’t wait to spend the rest of my life loving her the way she deserves. ❤️ #ForeverGrateful #MyLove #MyPerson #LuckyMe
