Donate to help Peter & Allie Strickler & family

Thank you for all of the love, prayers, emotional support, gifts, food, and

friendship over the last month.

Our whole world was turned upside down on May 18th and since then Peter has been in a fight for his life.

Peter had COVID, thought he recovered, but we found out he had double

COVID pneumonia w/the COVID glass lung situation. (I beg of your decency & humanity to not make this political).

Peter has an extremely high pain tolerance (if you ever trained or raced with

him you understand! He just thought he had lingering congestion and got

back at it when the majority of us probably would have been laid up in bed.

He returned to work and after a long workout in the evening went into

cardiac arrest... and now we are here.

He's fighting hard and has been since day one. He's stable but we still have

mountains to climb.

It feels strange asking for help because we thought we were prepared for

these various life situations but I'm quickly learning that sometimes you can't predict how tragic situations will go. There's no real way to fully imagine all of

the moving pieces that are involved.

I'm humbled, heartbroken and appreciate so many people reaching out

offering to help.

We are all trying our best to give Peter everything he needs for this fight, and also ensure that Ruby has everything she needs to keep shining her bright

light in the world.

I'm not sure what else to say, except, thank you, I love you, and I promise to

pay the love and support forward whenever & wherever I can.

XOXO,

Peter, Ruby, Allie and our whole family

P.S. I hope when you think of Peter, you hear his infectious laugh, see his

classic gapped tooth smile (my favorite), and know with 100% certainty, if you were friends once upon a time, he still and always will consider you his friend.
