Help Get Corey Back to the Mat
Donation protected
On September 5, 2018, Corey, was involved in a horrific car accident and suffered a traumatic brain injury. Corey is husband to his beautiful and devoted wife Becky, a father to two amazing little girls, and Hemlock Public School's beloved wrestling coach.
After 6 hours of surgery, Corey was stable and moved to the Neuro-Trauma ICU where he spent 16 days. Corey has severe damage to the temporal lobe of his brain which has resulted in the loss of speech and vocabulary comprehension. On September 20th, he was transferred to a Rehab Facility 2 hours away from his family and team. He will spend up to the next 8 weeks there receiving the best care possible.
The first 3 weeks after Corey's accident, his wife Becky has been unable to work as she was at the hospital helping care and comfort Corey and their two young daughters. Now as Becky learns and adjusts to her new reality there are many everyday and unforeseen expenses she wasn't prepared to handle alone. Some of the unforeseen expenses are the renovations that will need to be done to make the home safe for Corey to return home. Each day the costs are adding up as we learn more and more about what we will need to care for him once he returns home. That is in addition to the everyday expenses and the travel costs to see him until he comes home.
Please Help Us Get Coach Corey Back to the Mat and Home to His Family!
