Last week, the unthinkable happened to the Gray family. John Gray was hit by a car and suffered extensive injuries to his face and head. He was taken to the hospital in critical condition, and after a grueling nine-hour surgery, John is now beginning what will be a long and difficult road to recovery.

He needs time in the hospital, physical therapy, and in-home medical care. The financial burden of care is immeasurable.

Funds raised here will help John and Sarah cover medical expenses, hospital bills, rehabilitation, medications, lost income, and the day-to-day costs that come with a sudden and traumatic accident.

Sarah has been an incredible force of strength. And in her words: Callie (Davy), Saba (Dean) and Devon (Greg) have not skipped a beat. They are natural caregivers.

Sarah would never ask for this kind of help herself. In fact, she made it very clear that she did not want anyone to start a fundraiser. But the people who love the Grays know that this is exactly the moment when community is meant to step in. So, with love (and a little overruling) we are asking on their behalf.

John and Sarah are the epitome of open doors and open arms; givers in the truest sense. Kindness abounds at the Grays'. John and Sarah have given so much care to so many of us. Let’s surround them with that same care now.

Thank you to the incredible nurses and care team at University Hospital in Louisville, to everyone who has already shown up for the Grays, and to every person willing to donate, share, pray, send love, or help in any way.

Please donate if you are able, and share this fundraiser widely with your family, friends, and networks.
