Navigating the financial side of health recovery is proving to be a massive hurdle. We are currently waiting for insurance approvals and claims to be processed, creating a stressful financial gap for immediate out-of-pocket medical costs and daily living expenses. We want to focus all our energy on Jason’s healing, rather than the mounting stress of bills. If you are able to contribute, any donation will directly bridge this temporary gap.

Every dollar raised will directly fund Jason’s emergency relocation, ongoing healing, and medical rehabilitation:

• • Emergency Medical Flight: An immediate flight to Colorado to access the advanced, long-term neurological care he desperately needs, as all local facilities in Hawaiʻi are no longer an option.
  • Robotic Physical Therapy Devices: Robotic arm devices (spanning from shoulder to hand) to assist with movement and specialized physical therapy as he works to regain mobility and function.
  • Mobility & Assistance Service Dog: Funding to acquire and train a specialized service dog to help Jason safely navigate daily physical tasks while his arm and hand functions are compromised.
  • Retroactive & Ongoing Caregiving: Covering the cost of the full-time, round-the-clock in-home care Jason has required to survive since the incident in May, and funding a continued caregiving team moving forward.
  • Digital Assistant: Jason’s professional career requires consistent computer interaction, encompassing web development, legislative drafting, and public outreach. Due to heightened tactile sensitivity, operating a keyboard or mouse is currently difficult and painful. Dedicated funding will secure a digital assistant to perform manual computing tasks, enabling him to sustain his technical endeavors and professional commitments.
  • Housing & Transportation: Rent for a safe place to stay near the hospitals in Colorado, and a reliable vehicle for transportation to and from frequent appointments.
  • Daily Living: Nutritious food and basic living expenses while he is physically unable to work independently.
  • Medical Expenses: Out-of-pocket medical bills, treatments, deductibles, and necessary rehabilitation supplies.
