Mykel has always been the first to jump in and help others—whether it’s working hard, enjoying the outdoors, or lending a hand to a friend, family or a neighbor. Mykel has never been one to sit still. But recently, his life was turned upside down.
Out of nowhere, Mykel was diagnosed with idiopathic transverse myelitis, a rare and serious neurological condition. It came on without warning and caused sudden weakness in both his upper and lower body. Within days, he lost the ability to walk and take care of himself.
For someone as active and independent as Mykel, this has been terrifying and life-altering—not just for him, but for his wife Jordyn and our family.
Right now, Mykel is facing a long road to recovery, filled with hospital stays, rehabilitation, and ongoing treatments. While he’s fighting every day to regain strength and mobility, he’s unable to work, which has placed an enormous financial strain on them as they try to hold everything together.
We’re starting this GoFundMe to help lift some of the financial burden off their shoulders—covering medical expenses, rehabilitation costs, and the income Mykel has lost while he focuses on healing. Any contribution, no matter the size, will help give Mykel and Jordyn a sense of relief during this overwhelming time so they can focus on what truly matters: his recovery.
If you can’t donate, please consider sharing this page and sending love, prayers, and encouragement to Mykel and Jordyn. Every bit of support helps.
From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for standing by Mykel and helping him take the first steps—literally—toward getting back on his feet.
