Support Jockey Shannon Beauregard

Hello my name is Angela and I am Shannon Beauregard’s  oldest sister.

The reason for this fundraiser is to ask for   help and support for my sister. She was in      season ending accident at Century Mile race track on  September 18, 2020.

Shannon was in the third race almost at the finish line, leading by 3 horse lengths. Her  horse went down. She was thrown and run
over by the oncoming horse. Sustaining  
multiple injuries. Shattering her pelvis,          breaking her tailbone and breaking her hip. 

She was rushed to the hospital.  It took 4
days for the surgical team of orthopaedic  
surgeons and a pelvic specialist to operate. The surgery did not go as planned.  

They were not able to use screws as her
bones were too small. Electing to use
a “Halo” system instead to hold her                     together.  They inserted  metal rods into
either side of her hip from the
outside of her body. A large screw was          placed in the back of her pelvis.

She is suffering and in excruciating pain.       The doctors are working very hard to             control or manage her pain.  She has doses of pain    medication available every 6 mins. 

She will not even be able to consider                looking at the possibility of walking again     for a  minimum of at least three months.

Shannon will inevitably require being
admitted into a rehabilitation Center.   

The road to recovery will be extremely long, difficult and financially taxing.

Shannon will be unable to care for herself,  work or support herself for an                            undetermined period of time.  

She will require financial assistance and         support in many areas such as;

Rehabilitation and equipment costs,
loss of income,
insurance fees,
medical fees, 
transportation,
physiological therapy,
living expenses (Rent, food.....etc.)

Shannon has a heart of gold.  
She is kind hearted, loving and a very                  considerate woman. Always thinking of        others.

Helping in any way she can.   One of her
favourite memories,  was  when she was      able to help a very ill little girl, realize her   dream to meet “Shannon Beauregard a girl jockey” through a  “Wish Foundation”.  They spent a  wonderful and  memorable day      together at the race track. 

Shannon has a passion for horses and             racing them.  She becomes one with the       horse when she rides. Shannon has been      living her dream racing and riding horses. 
 Shannon has shown so much support in
the racing community.

I am asking for your help and financial           support at this time of need.

 It would be greatly appreciated.
Every dollar counts. No amount is too small wether it be 5$ or 20$. 

To help get the word out kindly share this.   “GoFundMe” Fundraiser on your Facebook timeline.  As well as any other social media networks or platforms.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart, in advance for your love and support.  

Sincerely, 
Angela Beauregard
