Our friend and colleague, Sean Stratton, a dedicated Firefighter Paramedic with the City of Riverside Fire Department, is facing a challenging battle against a life-threatening auto-immune disease that has severely impacted his kidneys. After months of declining kidney function, Sean is now receiving treatment in a Tennessee hospital and will begin dialysis tomorrow. Until a suitable donor is found, this dialysis will be a necessary part of his journey to recovery.

Sean has been courageously fighting this illness for nearly a year. During this time, he has exhausted all of his Sick Leave, Vacation, and Holiday Time, placing him on a “No Pay” status. Additionally, Sean’s wife, Ashley, recently faced complications during her pregnancy, but thankfully, she safely delivered their beautiful son, Levi, just two months ago.

To add to their challenges, Sean’s medical claim has been denied by the city. We are currently seeking legal and medical advice for a possible appeal or further review. In the meantime, Sean and his young family need our support more than ever.

We are asking our community to come together to help Sean, Ashley, and baby Levi through this difficult time. Your donation, big or small, can make a significant difference.
