</div>
<div>Hi everyone — this one is personal. Every year, we make donations over the Thanksgiving and Christmas holidays to local charities. This year, I'm helping a long-time friend, Chuck Graf. I have personally donated to friends raising funds for their kids and other efforts here on Facebook.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>My friend Chuck and I have known each other since Hawthorne. We grew up together across the tracks, went to the same schools, and lived through all the chaos, fun, and struggles that come with life. If you know Chuck, you know he’s stubborn, funny, and tries to get by without asking anyone for anything.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>But now, he really needs help.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><br />
</div><img alt="" media_type="3" src="https://d2g8igdw686xgo.cloudfront.net/97391111_1764805614853949_r.png" width="100%" />
<div><br />
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>️ Chuck Is Losing His Vision — And He’s Down to One Working Eye
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Chuck has a severe cataract in one eye, leaving him with almost no vision on that side. His other eye — the one he relies on to drive, work, and get through the day — is now starting to deteriorate too.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>He recently lost his insurance, and the timing couldn’t be worse.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>$770 is needed for the cataract surgery on the main eye
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>$270 is needed for the minor procedure on the other eye
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><br />
</div><img alt="" media_type="3" src="https://d2g8igdw686xgo.cloudfront.net/97391111_1764805674723604_r.png" width="100%" />
<div><br />
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Without it, he risks losing the independence he has left — including the ability to work
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Every day he battles pain and migraines because different amounts of light hit each eye. Some days, he can barely function. Imagine trying to keep your job when you can’t even rely on your eyesight.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>He should honestly be on disability or doctor-ordered rest, but like a lot of us, he has to work just to get by. He’s doing the best he can — but he’s running out of time.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Life Has Hit Him Hard, Over and Over
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Chuck has had more than his fair share of tough breaks over the years. He’s never complained, never asked for handouts, and never had the safety nets many people take for granted.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>This is his vision.
</div>
<div>His ability to work.
</div>
<div>His ability to drive.
</div>
<div>His ability to live independently.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Without surgery, everything becomes uncertain.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>This Is Our Chance to Step In — As His Community
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>He’s not asking for anything extravagant. He just wants to see again. To work. To get through a day without pain. To have a chance at a normal life.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>I’m asking anyone who can spare even a few dollars to help us reach this small but life-changing goal.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><br />
</div><img alt="" media_type="3" src="https://d2g8igdw686xgo.cloudfront.net/97391111_1764805745163870_r.png" width="100%" />
<div><br />
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Every donation helps. Every share helps.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>If 100 people gave just $10, the entire surgery cost would be covered.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Total Goal: $1,100
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>This covers both surgeries and transportation to appointments.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>❤️ Thank you. Truly.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Whether you donate or simply share this, it means the world to both of us. Chuck would give the shirt off his back if someone else needed it — now it’s our turn to give him a hand.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><br />
</div><img alt="" media_type="3" src="https://d2g8igdw686xgo.cloudfront.net/97391111_1764805816807640_r.png" width="100%" />
<div><br />
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Let’s help him see again.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>— Jim

<div>UPDATES AT BOTTOM
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Hi everybody, my name is Holly. I am the daughter of Susan and Denzil Edie. On October 5th, 2024 my parents were involved in a tragic motorcycle accident. What appeared to be a medical emergency with my mom, turned into my dads motorcycle t-boning another vehicle at an intersection. My mom (Susan) was ejected off the motorcycle and has multiple fractured bones (pelvis, tail bone, ribs, and skull). She also has a large laceration on the back of her skull that was stapled shut. My dad (Denzil) was seen in the emergency room as well and has a concussion, a possible broken wrist (waiting on x-ray from VA), and severe tension everywhere in his body. Praise the good lord above us, they had so many angels watching over them. My mom has ability to move all limbs and has no spinal or neck injuries. She was cleared by orthopedic surgeons yesterday that she will not need any surgeries to help in the healing process, but with that being said she has a long recovery ahead of her. The last few days have been a whirlwind of emotions and full of so much love and support from not only family, friends, but our community. I have tried to update each and everyone of you that I can in a timely manner, but below I will give a run down of updates in case I have missed you or we haven't been in contact.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>The first two days were full of rest and lots of labs, tests, x-rays, MRI's, etc. Everything continued to come back NORMAL. They had a plan in place to remove her off the ventilator on Monday morning, but in the middle of the night around 2:00 AM I got a frightening call to what I believed that she TORE OUT HER VENT ALL ON HER OWN!!! If you know my mom, you know she is a feisty little fire cracker! She handled well off the ventillator until her throat started swelling due to the pressure of the balloon being inflated in the vent and it coming up her esophagus. They heard strider in her breaths so the amazing trauma team decided it was best to re-intubate her and let her rest all day and try again the following morning. This morning they ran some tests to make sure the swelling went down and they were able to remove the vent! Since the vent has been removed they have placed a NG tube to help with medications and feedings since her throat is extremely sore from having all the tubes down it the last few days. She is still sedated on a medication called DEX. This helps with anxiety and takes some thought off her mind of what is going on. PT just came around at 2:00 and was able to get her up on the side of the bed and she was able to stand up with very little assistance 3 times! She was also able to take a small step to the right side before she laid back down. They lowered her DEX down to .05 and are hopeful that they can keep weaning it so she can get out of the ICU and into the next unit down the hall. She is talking, opening her eyes, yelling at the nurses that she wants help to get out of this damn bed, she has been able to tell us what our names are (her kids: Nikki, Nick, and myself) and she was able to tell my dad over the phone that she loves him.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>With all of that being said she has a long road to recovery... she will be out of work for a unknown period of time, her husband Denzil has been retired for over 10 years. She is going to need acute intensive rehab for several weeks to months after hospital release and we are needing as much support for them as we can get for medical bills, personal bills, gas for transportation, groceries, etc.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>I know my mom would never want us to ask for any kind of donations, but my parents have attended hundreds of fundraisers, bike runs, donated to so many in the biker community for reasons like this and for other amazing causes over the last 20 years. I know that the love and support is needed and so I ask please if you can donate anything at all, please help them in this time of need. They have always given their shirts off their backs for everyone else and this time it's someones turn to help them!
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>I thank you in advance for all donations. I don't know how I could get through any of this without each and every one of you that has been supporting to our family is this tragic time of need.
</div>
<div><br />

</div>
<div>October 10th 2024:
</div>
<div>Mom is doing EXCELLENT! She has been doing amazing off the vent, her oxygen input is at 40%, NG tube and catheter were removed yesterday, DEX sedation is turned off as of yesterday. She was heavily sedated and given a lot of narcotics so her body is weaning off of those now. She is eating, drinking, and able to take her medications by mouth. Physical therapy has been working with her and she is able to stand for a period of time, march in place, and step side to side. She is very lucid, but is also experiencing some hallucinations due to the narcotics. She is aware of her surroundings, she doesn't remember what happened before the accident or during. She is aware she is in the hospital, she recognizes her family, friends, etc. She is asking for "aspirin" for pain - we find that comical because this girl never takes any medications so if the "aspirin" is helping for pain we are grateful!  It's amazing how her recovery is going. She was downgraded from ICU as well and is waiting for a bed in the next unit down. 
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Thank you for all of your prayers, thoughts, love, and all donations. I can't even begin to explain the amount of support and love we have been shown and how much we appreciate it.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Love, 
</div>
<div><br />

Joe Richey

My name is Ashlee, and I am reaching out for support as I pursue a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to study abroad in Europe. I will be traveling to London, Berlin, Paris, and Vienna to explore how European psychologists and their medical systems are using mindfulness and positive psychology to improve mental wellness. This journey will also take me to the heart of Vienna, where I will visit the historic practice of Sigmund Freud and learn about the origins of trauma care during World War I, when Austrian pioneers first responded to cases of 'shell shock.' 
<br>
<br>
 This experience is not just about travel—it's about deepening my understanding of psychology and mental health from a global perspective. The funds I raise will help cover 6 hours of university credit, housing in central city hostels, daily breakfast, all required museum visits, 24/7 Catalyst staff support, and travel between these incredible cities. Every contribution will help me access the resources and experiences I need to bring new insights back to my future practice. 
<br>
<br>
 I am very grateful for the opportunity to study my major in Europe and to see firsthand how this field has been shaped outside of western culture. Visiting the very places where some of the most influential figures in psychology lived and worked will inspire me to make a difference in my own community. Thank you so much for considering a donation to support my journey and my dream.
