Support Coach Kwik’s Recovery from Brain Injury
Donation protected
Hello, I’m Stephanie and I’m raising funds on behalf of Michael Flores, a.k.a. Coach Kwik, who is going through a health scare and is out of work right now.
Michael is a proud father, former professional boxer, and Golden Gloves champ who transitioned from boxing to coaching during the pandemic. He trained Michael Reeves and turned him into a champion at the 1st Creator Clash in ‘21. Last year, Michael took his expertise to YouTube and started his own boxing-focused channel that was just getting off the ground and steadily gaining subscribers.
At the end of 2024, Michael suffered a brain injury that resulted in what his doctors believe is a cochlear concussion. The concussion has lead to a host of issues, including chronic and loud tinnitus, insomnia, balance problems, headaches, and anxiety. These symptoms have made it hard for Michael to work.
Michael is currently recovering and making progress but he has a long road ahead. While he prioritizes recovering, Michael needs to avoid loud noises/environments, bright lights, any impact to his head, and stressful situations, since these could set his recovery back. As a result, he needs to take a break from training/boxing and shooting content until he makes major progress in his recovery.
Since December, Michael has made a few ER visits, had several CT scans, and has seen neurologists. He has a number of follow up appointments with his PCP, ENT, PT, and we’re looking to get him in with concussion specialists and anyone else who can help.
With Michael being out of work and with some time for recovery ahead, any help with upcoming medical bills and life expenses is greatly appreciated.
Thank you
