Bring Judith Home

Donation protected
Our family is trying to raise money to bring our mom, sister, grandmother, aunt & friend, Judith Ashley, back home to California.   

While she was on a vacation in Skammestein,Norway, a propane leak caused an explosion in the summer cabin she had been staying in.   Over 18% of her body is covered by burns, with 3rd degree burns on her hands & leg.  Her hands suffered the most extensive damage & will require skin grafting surgery.  She was life flighted to Bergen after the explosion, where she is in a special ICU unit for burn victims.    We will use the funds to fly a family member to Norway to be with Judith bedside & then to accompany her home.   The funds will also be used to pay her medical bills & for trasportation home which may have to be on a medical flight due to her condition. 

Judith travelled to Norway as a vacation. She had saved for a few years to make this trip to visit one of her best friends.   They collect local plants together to create natural dyes.  She is very creative & is constantly knitting, spinning, creating new dyes & gardening.

Our family would be so thankful for any financial assistance that you could provide.  Judith is half a world away.  We want to bring her home.  Funds will be collected by Sarah Sholtze, Judith's daughter.
