Hey, wrestlefriends, I know we're not on wreddit any more, but I received a notification via their discord that one of their long time moderators, Kentucky210, suffered two strokes on Dec 23rd. His parents are asking his fellow wredditors for help with current and future medical expenses. As of this posting, they have just passed $3k of their $25k goal.

The gofundme link above (and below for fediverse friends, just in case) has more details.

Update 2-23-2024: Fundraiser has stagnated at about $8.5k, so I'll be throwing in another $25. Please don't take this as me pressuring anyone to donate. See latest comment for update on Kentucky210's condition.

Fundraiser has passed $6k and they posted an update:

Austin continues making progress in his recovery. However, it will still be a long road. We look back at the last month from the time we found him in his apartment, transported to the 1st hospital, transported to the 2nd hospital, days in ICU, time in the Neurological ward to now in Acute Rehabilitation where he does Occupational Therapy, Physical Therapy and Speech Therapy 5 to 6 days a week. The outpouring of support from everyone has been so helpful from the prayers/well wishes, offers to help in any way, and the donations made really mean the world to us. Our whole world changed on the 23rd of December but we are able to still be together and work hard on getting Austin back to 100% or at least as close to that as possible and with everyone's continued support we will make it. God bless.
