Support Geoffrey's Recovery from Spinal Cord Injury

Donation protected
Please share!

On April 20th, every parent's worst dream came true for us. Our son, Geoffrey, traveled from Idaho to Maine for a snowmobile event. Tragically, during the competition, his sled hit a rough patch, causing him to lose control. The sled struck him in the middle of his back, resulting in a severe spinal cord injury. He was airlifted to a hospital in Maine and is currently undergoing rehabilitation at Spaulding Rehab in Boston.

Geoffrey's diagnosis has profoundly impacted his everyday life and mobility. He is working hard to adjust to his new reality, learning essential self-care skills, and striving to regain independence. Despite the uncertainty surrounding his recovery, Geoffrey remains determined.

The funds raised will help alleviate the financial burden on Geoffrey and our family. Medical expenses, ongoing rehabilitation, therapy, and specialized equipment are substantial. We also need to modify our home with handicap-accessible amenities like a bathroom and ramps to facilitate Geoffrey's mobility.

Beyond medical costs, there are everyday expenses and bills that need covering until Geoffrey can return to work, which is currently uncertain. Your generosity will provide essential support during this challenging time, allowing Geoffrey to focus on his recovery without added financial stress.

Geoffrey's aspirations for the future are anchored in his determination to return to Idaho, where he was pursuing his dreams before the accident. Your contributions will aid Geoffrey's journey towards recovery and help him achieve his goal of moving out west.

Every donation, no matter the size, is deeply appreciated. Any surplus funds will be paid forward to another family in need. Thank you for standing with us during this difficult time. For donations via Venmo: @mjfitts. If you prefer to donate by check please message me.

Your support means the world to us.

With gratitude,
Maura Fitts
