Help Gary Lawton recover from his stroke
Donation protected
Gary was preparing to embark upon ambitious adventures on his bike this summer when he suffered a stroke while in the Southeast. During his recovery, he contracted a bacterial blood infection and lost some vision in his eye which required hospitalization. He will need IV antibiotics for several weeks. We all know Gary was looking forward to doing what he loves, spending time outdoors on foot or by bike, as much as possible in retirement. His recent health troubles have derailed his plans. Any funds donated will help Gary with medical bills, and transitioning out of the hospital into a long-term living situation. This fundraiser will make sure that financial difficulties are not another thing Gary has to worry about as he recovers.
