Turning Setbacks into Stepping Stones (and Grab Bars)

Rebecca will have life-long challenges from her brain injuries. She currently has moderate to severe cognitive-linguistic, balance, and motor control deficits that should improve over time. However, those will, most probably, never wholly resolve and she will have on-going medical needs including physical and speech therapies, possible assistive devices, and home modification. Rebecca has made amazing progress in just the last 10 days, and her goal is to be at home again soon with Vick and their fur-babies.

The most immediate need she has is remodeling a bathroom in her home to be accessible and accommodating for mobility issues, so she can safely go home when done with inpatient rehabilitation. That includes widening doorways, removing the current bathtub and creating a large roll-in shower with seat. Estimates for that work total approximately $15,000.

On behalf of Rebecca, we thank you all for your continued support. She truly appreciates everything you have done for her, and will continue to do, as she works on her recovery.

Family and friends of Rebecca Scott are raising money for the nonprofit Help Hope Live to fund uninsured medical expenses associated with a Catastrophic Illness. Rebecca has chosen to fundraise with Help Hope Live in part because donations are tax deductible for contributors and will only be used to cover medical and related expenses.
