Service Resumes 2012 for Injured Rugger Skippy. Purchase a tshirt to help support her recovery.

from my inbox:

As many of you may know, and for those of you that don’t, I sustained a pretty gnarly knee injury in April at the DC Ruggerfest tournament. My ACL detached/tore/is obliterated and my meniscus is shot to shit. Presently, I am hobbling around with a sassy wooden cane and have begun to regress into the habits of a crotchety old man.

On May 16th I had surgery on my knee to totally reconstruct my ACL (using my hamstring, eww) and repair my meniscus. Apparently I will be having fun pins and screws put in there as well. I am looking at several weeks out from work, extensive PT and an 8 month minimum recovery time due to the severity of it.

That’s where all you lovely, wonderful people come in. Unfortunately, my insurance is not covering all of my procedure and I am going to be having tough times with the work I have to miss. I am having shirts made as a sort of fundraiser. I am reaching out to you all to see if you would be willing to make a $15.00 donation ($17 for out of state folks to just help me with shipping! Or more if you’re feeling spry and generous!) to help me offset costs that I am going to incur from this whack nonsense. In return, you get a nifty shirt and my immense, undying gratitude.

If you are able and interested in this ‘project’ of mine, please respond with a yes and how many shirts and what sizes you would like. After I get your respons, I will respond directly with a paypal link for you to send over the $15.00 (or $17, or whatever other denomination). Since I want to put in the order soon it would be good to get all responses and donations by June 1st.

Thank you all so so much! ♥ ♥
Amber (Skippy)
