URGENT - funds needed for medical emergency

Hi everyone - I'm starting a fundraiser for our good friends Lee and Jen Cochrane. Jen's brother was recently in a horrific accident and is hanging on by a thread in hospital in Calgary.

The doctors are advising Jen's mom and her fly out to be with him, however her mom is on disability, and they have used their family funds for the ticket, and to give her money for food.

She is going to need help with cash while she is there: she needs to buy a jacket (as she came to Windsor in the summer) She thankfully was offered a place to stay by James' friend, but will need transportation costs, incidentals, etc. It would also be nice if the family could recoup the funds they had spent on her mom's ticket so Jen can go as well.

I know everyone's tight, but these are top-shelf human beings that could REALLY use a hand. These things always hit when times are tough...

EDIT: We hit our goal so quickly that I opted to increase it slightly because I've had more folks ask if they can still help. Community is EVERYTHING and good on you all for being such stellar humans.
