While participating in a ski trip with her high school ski club, 14 year old Taylor Biggs suffered a terrible accident that sadly took her life.
On a clear Saturday morning at the Soldier Mountain Ski Area in Fairfield Idaho, Taylor was involved in a ski accident that left her unconscious and not breathing. After 45 minutes of CPR by ski patrol, she was taken by Life Flight to Boise. After a night in ICU, Taylor succumbed to her injuries.

My lady has had MS for 19 yrs, but a new lesion has made life very difficult for her, landing her in the hospital twice and now she is in a convalescence center. I have had to leave my job to help her in her recovery, and the bills are piling up fast. Need to get caught up, and get some mobility equipment for the home, in case she doesn't regain her former ability to get around with her walker. Any and all help is appreciated.

My name is Mark, I have a tramautic brain injury. I have a Service dog named Stoney who helps me with anxiety and seizures. He likes to sleep next to me on the bed, but recently he has been diagnosed with an ACL tear in his left knee. He hurts every day and this just kills me to watch this. I would rather trade places with him.
I am on a fixed income and unable to afford Surgery for him in Twin Falls. Can any one help? As soon as I can get some funds I can schedule the surgery. Thank You. Took him to the Vet again today his knee is worse, and now his right knee is bad too. What am I to do?
In May of this year I took my boat down to the river for a day of fishing. After about 20 minutes of pulling on the rope to start the motor, my back began to hurt, frustrated and in pain I loaded the boat up and went home.
That was the last normal day of my life. I fractured three vertebrae in my spine that day. I've been diagnosed with a rare and incurable cancer called Multiple Myeloma.
I'm asking all of you my friends, family and loved ones to help me fight this battle. I'm unable to work and need funds to keep food on the table and a roof over my head.
