Clint, Ashley and the 4 children are dealing with something most of us never heard of Transverse Myelitis; There are many issues with this condition here is a list below of what will need to be done and has been done. Ashley is working still full time and has not been able to travel with the kids down to see Clint. Clint will not be able to work for a while and drives a truck for a living. With the help of everyone, I would like this to see them not fall behind on bills and to allow some travel funds for the family to see him. Clint's progress might be slow and on top of that as of April 5, 2019, Clint is now dealing with a blood clot in his lung this will be another issue that will take time to recover from.
