Dear Rivian Family,

Many of you know Terry as LivingInKaos, along with his Plum Passion R1T. Terry's a long-time leader within the Rivian Clubs of America, a great friend to many, and a big-hearted family man.

I hope he and the Administrator forgive me for posting this, but his family is facing some absolutely horrendous medical bills, along with his wife's dire and ongoing situation that's driving these bills. Accordingly, I'm posting a link to GoFundMe that we're hopeful will help relieve much of the financial burden Terry and his family are facing.

Any help people can provide will be greatly appreciated.

Thank you, and enjoy this holiday weekend with your family and friends!

Be well,

Bruce

The generosity of the community is definitely humbling. I've been crying all day.
I would be too. I couldn't even make it through your story without crying.

I only wish I could give more:confused: I will keep the Gofundme page saved and come back to it as often as I can.

That is definitely the abridged version. As for giving more, I feel that way every time I have helped out. It's the passion the drives more giving when possible for the next person in need. Thank you for everything here.

Donated. Thanks for sharing their story, @DuckTruck. Wishing your family better times, @LivingInKaos 😔
Thank you for that and for donating, COdogman! I've been away from these Forums for a very long time. It took something this important to bring me back. I hope to get reacquainted and reconnected here.

I'm not sure many people know how much Terry does behind the scenes to help make our driving experience so fantastic. He's an amazing guy, and I thank all those who've shown their love and support through GoFundMe. It's a huge help!

For so many of us, this is where the community started. I've always been thankful for the help that our Administrator has provided over these last several years. It's a wonderful community here, and I'm thankful for all the great people I know because of this place.

Again, my thanks!

Bruce

Just because you took the time to use paragraphs it was easier to donate. 😬🙏🏽Though difficult to read it all, due to the severity of it. Your post reminds me of how frail we are and to focus on making now, today as enjoyable and positive as possible.

I pray all ends well for your esposa. And may you, your familia and friends have the strength to stay positive through it all.

Thank you so much. The emotional support is tremendous for me. It's been exhausting for sure.

Ha, I hear you on the paragraphs. That was the abridged version for sure. There was much to the time between Jan & Apr that I left out because it was more of the same. We got to know many of our local hospital staff very well.

Thank you for your support. This community is amazing. I'm usually on the other end of this stuff....

Terry, I don’t know you, but I am so, so sorry that Julie, you and your family are living through this nightmare. It’s bad enough dealing with the physical issues, without being hit with the financial burden. Hit your GoFundMe up with a few bucks. Wish I could do more. Stay strong.
