Carl Lipp’s recovery journey

Go fund me page

On September 29th, 2023 my father-in-law, Carl Lipp (60), tragically fell from a tree stand in the woods. He was taken to Strong Memorial Hospital, where he has remained in ICU for the past couple weeks. For anyone who knows Carl, they know he is an adventure-seeking outdoorsman; passionate about camping, hunting, fishing, grilling, skiing, etc.

Carl has suffered many broken ribs, broken vertebrae, a fused back, and a complete T7 spinal cord injury resulting in paraplegia. He has a very long road ahead of him and will be soon transferring to an inpatient rehab and learning how to live life completely differently. In order to return to his home, he will need many home renovations to make his house wheelchair accessible. This will include several ramps, widened doorways, knocking down walls, a whole new handicap accessible bathroom, and the list goes on.

Carl and his wife Lisa have been married for 30+ years and are the most giving and loving people I know. They would help anyone else, without questions asked. Now they need our help so they can move forward given these life changing circumstances. We are asking for any and all help to take some of the financial burden off their shoulders so they can focus on healing and moving forward. The cost of home renovations and a pressure relief mattress and electric bed are just some of the costs they will need help with.

Our family is extremely grateful for all of the prayers, love, and support received so far. Keep them coming, as his recovery journey is just beginning! Carl and his family can’t thank everyone enough. Please consider donating to help him get home as soon as possible and continue being the great husband, father, son, brother, uncle, and friend that he is.

Also, soon to be grandpa!!! Something he is so excited about!
