Help Cathy Get Back on her Feet

Donation protected
Cathy Rose's inspiring sense of adventure has led her to a mandatory slow down and, unfortunately, mounting medical expenses. On Saturday September 2, she not only had her second paragliding lesson, but an unexpected medevac helicopter ride all the way from Cosmos to Minneapolis, MN.

Cathy fell from about 20', broke her femur in 2 places and fractured her spine. She spent 12 days at Hennepin County Medical Center, underwent surgery and is now in ongoing rehab physical therapy. Although insured, only a fraction of her mandatory helicopter ride is covered. That, coupled with an extended period of missed work as she heals, puts her in an extremely tough financial situation. These funds will go to pay for the helicopter ride that falls outside of her insurance coverage.

If you know Cathy, you know that a back brace, crutches and sitting down aren't her style. You also know that she is the first to jump in and offer help. I've worked with her on 3 medical fundraisers for friends. Let's return the favor by helping to relieve her monetary worries and help her (literally) get back on her feet! Any little thing helps- even just sharing this with your friends! Thank you! Catherine-rose-123 on Venmo.
