Help Scotti make Surfing History

Donation protected
Less than 2 years ago I lost my right leg to a near death motorbike accident on the way to work while living in Costa Rica.  I worked for myself as a canyoning guide and when I wasn't guiding guests down waterfalls, I was surfing with my family. A lot has changed but I want to believe for the better. I have moved to Fla where I am going to school full time to learn how to fabricate prosthetics. I have also Started up a nonprofit organization called StumpLife Adventures, where I will be taking active amputees to Costa Rica to participate in adventure activities( Surfing, waterfall Rappelling, Paddle Boarding, zip-lining..... ) for some much needed Thrill-Therapy.  

I am half Swissy half Yanky and  I have been selected to represent Switzerland in the First ever International Surfing Association World Adaptive Championships

 I just had to put down my best friend/service dog, Chopper,  2 days ago unexpectedly. The little bit of funds that I had put away for this historical surfing event have been put towards  medical bills for Chopper.  I really don't like asking people for money but I'm putting together this gofundme  as a last resort.  This event is less then 2 weeks away and I still dont have a plane ticket or a place to stay. If you can help in any way what so ever it would be greatly appreciated.  You can follow my journey and get StumpLife updates via the 2 links below.
