Help for Roger Ashcraft
We are Roger Ashcraft’s family, and right now he is in the ICU at UCHealth Memorial Hospital in Colorado Springs.
After spending the winter in North Carolina, Roger and Mona packed up and began their journey back home to Alaska. Their plan was to drive to Seattle, ship their truck on the Matson barge, and fly to Anchorage. Along the way, they stopped in Colorado Springs to visit someone very special to them, Mikaelle Pastana-Towns, who is like a daughter to them.
On March 13th, Roger began feeling weak and said it was getting hard to walk. By Saturday morning, his condition worsened, his speech became slurred, and he could no longer walk. Today, he is unable to speak, but he is aware, present, and able to communicate with hand signals. He has been extremely fatigued, and his breathing became increasingly difficult.
After extensive testing, doctors ruled out a stroke and diagnosed him with Guillain Barre’ Syndrome specifically the Miller Fisher syndrome variant. Roger is currently in the ICU, receiving critical care.
Our goal now is to bring him home to Alaska, to the ICU at Mat-Su Regional Medical Center, where he can be surrounded by family, friends, and the support system that means everything to him. We truly believe that being close to loved ones will help restore his spirit and strength during this fight. Unfortunately, transporting Roger will require a medical flight, which is extremely costly reaching tens of thousands of dollars.
We are asking for help to cover:
• Emergency medical flight transportation to Alaska
• Ongoing medical expenses
• Travel and support costs for family during this time.
Any support, whether through a donation or simply sharing this page. It means more than we can express.
Roger is a strong, deeply loved man, and we are committed to getting him home where he belongs.
Thank you for your prayers, support, and kindness during this incredibly difficult time.
Every contribution brings us closer to helping Roger, our deeply loved Papa, in a meaningful way, and we are deeply grateful for your generosity!
