Supporting Robyn’s Recovery

Help our Robyn build a new life after surviving a stroke, then losing her much loved husband all in a 3 short months.

Okato, Taranaki

Robyn is one of those rare people who trucks on without complaint or self pity, no matter what life has thrown at her. And it’s thrown her a few. From losing her beautiful son Mike when he was 17, to suffering a stroke and surviving two brain surgeries, then losing her much loved husband Paul whilst she was still in hospital recovering.

She would probably hate asking for help, but we want to wrap our arms around this amazing woman and help her build a new life - however that may look. That’s what Paul would do, and without him here, we want to do this for him.

She has made incredible progress in hospital, and has inspired us all with her resilience and grit, but she is going to need a lot of funds to continue her hospital care, rehabilitation and life after.

Your generosity and support will help her focus solely on what matters most - her recovery.

Thank you for supporting the Clearwater/Ryan family, and please know that every little bit counts in helping Robyn.
