Support Phil Kemp's Stroke Recovery Journey

Donation protected
Hi everyone,

We're writing today to ask for your support for someone who means so much to us and many others in our fitness community—Phil Kemp, a dedicated fitness trainer, mentor, and friend who recently suffered a stroke. Phil is the kind of person who has always been there for others, motivating us to push harder, believe in ourselves, and achieve goals we never thought possible. Now, it’s our turn to support him.

What Happened:

While visiting his family in Las Vegas, Phil experienced unexpected pain in his right forearm. What started as a simple ache turned into a medical emergency when doctors discovered two blood clots in his arm. After urgent treatment to remove both clots, an MRI revealed an alarming new clot had traveled to his brain, specifically on the right side of his brain. The medical team was able to remove it successfully, but the procedure came with a difficult aftermath.

Although the clot was cleared, the process caused some damage to the brain cells in that area, resulting in temporary paralysis on Phil’s left side. At the moment, Phil is unable to move his left arm and leg, and he’s facing a long road to recovery ahead.

Phil’s Road to Recovery:

Phil is incredibly strong and resilient, and we know that he will fight every step of the way as he works through his rehabilitation. However, recovery from a stroke is complex and demanding. Phil will require extensive physical therapy, medical treatments, and a lot of time to rebuild strength, coordination, and motor function on his left side.

How You Can Help:

We’ve set up this GoFundMe campaign to help Phil through this challenging time. Your donations will go directly to:

• Medical bills and rehabilitation costs
• Ongoing physical and occupational therapy to regain motor skills
• Home health care and assistance as he continues his recovery
• Transportation costs for medical appointments and treatment

We know that Phil has touched so many lives, and it’s time for us to return that support. Whether it’s a small donation, sharing this campaign with your network, or sending positive thoughts and prayers, every bit counts and means the world to Phil and his family.

Thank you so much for taking the time to read Phil’s story. With your help, we can provide him the resources he needs to focus on healing and get back to doing what he loves: helping others lead healthy, active lives.

We truly appreciate your generosity and kindness during this difficult time.

With gratitude,
