7/19/24 UPDATE @ bottom
Hi everyone, I'm reaching out because my neighbor, good friend, and bonus Papa to my two sons, Kevin Read, has been in a horrible accident. He fell off his bike at a mountain bike park, breaking his neck and his back. He is in the ICU and has a long recovery ahead. Every donation goes towards the costs of being life flighted to the hospital, hospital care, followed by extensive long term care on a retired fixed income. Every donation, big or small, makes a difference❤️ Any amount contributed at this time is greatly appreciated. No matter what, please share this with friends and family as this would mean the world to us as well.

UPDATE: Kevin had a 12 hour back and neck surgery on July 11th. He is stable and conscious. The doctors predict him staying in the ICU until around July 18th. After that, the doctors predict one to three more weeks at a rehabilitation facility.
Meanwhile, construction begins July 13th at the Read’s home. They are creating a ramp into the home and making the downstair’s bathroom wheelchair accessible. Their downstair’s bathroom also needs a wheelchair accessible shower. Please, please, please continue sharing this page with friends and family. All the contributions help now with medical and construction needs. Thank you all very much. You’re making a huge difference❤️

Hi family and friends,
Kevin is no longer on the ICU floor and still recovering by until the rehabilitation floor. He has a neck brace and back brace to support him. He also has a hand splint as he has a boxer fracture. Construction has been going on at the Read home. The ramp for going into the home and ADA compliant bathroom with shower is also being built. Thank you all for the continued love and support. The Read family loves the incredible meals as well❤️ Please continue to share this page as the construction alone will cost around $20,000. This isn’t including any medical bills. You all are supporting the Read family so much. With deep gratitude and hugs!
