<div>Most of us who grew up in Magnolia know the Peek and Ramos families. They are the kind of people who show up — for their family, for their friends, and for their community. On May 20th, Mike Ramos was badly injured while working and was airlifted by MedEvac to Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston, where he has been receiving care ever since. An MRI revealed fractures at the thoracic-lumbar junction — T12 and L1 — and he underwent surgery to stabilize his spine.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Spinal cord injuries of this kind are particularly frightening in the first 24 to 48 hours, because the full picture doesn't begin to emerge until the initial inflammation and shock resolve. Mike is beginning the long process of healing, and hope remains that he will make a positive recovery. Regardless, the road ahead is long, and his life is forever changed. There are no easy predictions with spinal cord injuries — but Mike is fighting, and his family is right there with him.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Mike will remain at Mass General for approximately two months of acute care, after which he will transition to Spaulding Rehabilitation Hospital — one of the country's leading spinal cord injury rehabilitation programs — to begin the longer, arduous work of recovery.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Lisa and her children, Stanley and Sean, have been at Mike's side around the clock, taking turns staying in a nearby hotel through the nights. The family is surrounded by love and deeply appreciates your thoughts, prayers, and supportive actions. Please understand that they are not able to respond to individual messages and calls at this time.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>The Ramos family faces needs that are immediate and real. It is not yet known whether Mike will ever be able to return to work. Lisa has been, and will continue to be, a pillar of strength for her family. She is working and doing her best to hold onto that income while also being present for Mike as much as possible — a balance that is as exhausting as it sounds. And while Mike's acute care at Mass General and his rehabilitation at Spaulding are the immediate focus, what comes after is still an open question. The level of ongoing support, home care, and outpatient therapy he will need remains to be determined. It is certain that the costs ahead are significant, and overwhelming to contemplate. Your contributions will go toward:

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>•	Home modifications and medical equipment. Depending on Mike's recovery, the family's home will likely need to be adapted for accessibility, and specialized equipment will be essential to his care and mobility.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>•	Vehicle adaptation. Transportation that accommodates a wheelchair is a necessity, not a luxury, for Mike's ongoing rehabilitation and daily life.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>•	Housing and household costs. The mortgage, utilities, and everyday expenses don't pause during a crisis. With Mike unable to work and Lisa balancing work demands against caregiving, these basics are at risk.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>•	Rehabilitation and medical expenses. Spinal cord injury recovery is intensive and long-term. Insurance covers only a portion of the therapies, equipment, and follow-on care Mike will need.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>If you're able to give — anything at all — please do. And if you have questions about the fund or other ways to help the Ramos family, please reach out to the organizers directly using the contact link on this page.

</div>

<div>**Please note that tax-deductible donations for the benefit of the Ramos family may also be made through The Gloucester Fund (www.thegloucesterfund.org/about), a local organization that partners with the community for the community and, among other things, provides emergency support when needed. Donations to the fund may be made via venmo (@TheGloucesterFund - look for the fishing boat logo), or by mailing a check to The Gloucester Fund, Inc., 44 ½ Main Street, Unit 1, Gloucester, MA 01930). Please be sure to include “Ramos Family” in the online description or in the memo line of your check.**

<div>Thank you for your kind and compassionate support.

Help the Ramos Family following Mike’s Spinal Cord Injury

<div>My name is Kathy Prevost and this is the love of my life, my husband Wesley. We have been together since he was 17 and i was 15  married 39 years. Wesley has Small Cell and Brain Cancer. He only has less than 2 weeks left to live and is no longer responsive. My husband has always had a zest for life! Growing up he always had a passion for hockey and boxing. When he was younger he attended the Bobby Orr traing camp and until recently when  he could no longer speak always said it was by far the best time in his life other than marrying me and the birth of our three beautiful sons! Wesley always made it a point to work a schedule to accomodate his boys so he would never miss a single hockey, baseball or football game even so much as to coach their teams. He would never miss an opportunity to spend time with his family. Since his diagnosis a year and a half ago he had to stop working and I have had to give him around the clock care. Unfortunately this has put an extreme burden on us financially as he was the sole care giver of our family and now with the expected cost of his passing and having to still pay for mortgage, utilities and food any little amount will help. My family and I thank you from the bottom of our hearts and we know that Wesley thanks you as well. The Prevost Family

We've been told that the RHS Seniors are lacking in funds and won't have enough money to support all of their Senior Week activities.   All of us have seen what these kids have gone through and missed out on this past year and we want to do whatever possible to make their Senior Week an extraordinary one!   We are looking for donations to help fund the Seniors prom and any other senior week activities.   We are asking the school to provide a list of everything that is needed for their week to be a success (prom decorations, food, DJ, etc...).  100% of what we collect will go towards the Senior Week activities.   Any bit will help and we know they'll appreciate anything we can give to them.  We are under a tight time crunch so the sooner we can get them the funds the better.  Thank you so much.

Help RHS Seniors get the celebrations they deserve

<br />Brian Dailey passed away suddenly December 31, 2020, leaving behind his two sons, Jackson, 11 years old, and Kevin Dailey, 8 years old. The boys reside with their mother, Christine Dailey, in Plymouth, Mass.<br /><br />Brian was raised in Beverly, Mass. and as a child, spent his summers in New Seabury, Mass. Most recently, Brian lived in Falmouth, Mass, and worked for the Commonwealth of Massachusetts at a local hospital. In the past several years Brian lived and worked in North Carolina and West Virginia. Brian is survived by his mother, Marcia, and brother, Sean Dailey of Falmouth, Mass. and his father, Frank Dailey of St. Augustine, Fla. <br /><br />Brian was a dedicated friend and family man who enjoyed spending time with Jackson and Kevin more than anything else. On weekends, you would find Brian coaching their sports teams and sharing his love of the outdoors with them. Together, they spent their time boating, fishing, camping, skiing or winding down the day watching the beautiful sunsets over Falmouth beaches. <br /><br />Our hearts go out to Brian's family. If you would like to send a donation, funds for this GoFundMe are going directly to the Brian Dailey Memorial Fund for Jackson and Kevin and will be used to pay for their educational expenses. <br /><br />This GoFundMe page was created on behalf of Brian's family with their permission.<br /><br />Your help and support are greatly appreciated.
