On behalf of the Diamond family, we are reaching out to our friends, community, and colleagues to ask for your support during an incredibly difficult time.
In the early hours of Tuesday, June 10th, around 4:00 AM, Andrew was on his way home from work on his motorcycle when he was involved in a devastating head-on collision with an elk.
Andrew was transported to Trail Hospital and placed in an induced coma. Thankfully, CT scans of his head and spine came back clear, but he sustained severe injuries—including multiple broken bones, a collapsed lung, a shattered pelvis, and a ruptured bladder among others. He has since been airlifted to Kelowna General Hospital, where he will undergo multiple surgeries and face a long road to recovery.
Andrew’s wife, Jenn, and their children are doing their best to stay strong, but the emotional and financial strain is significant. That’s why we’re asking for your help.
How Your Donations Will Help:
Your generous support will help ease the burden on the Diamond family by covering:
Medical Expenses: Ongoing treatments, surgeries, and rehabilitation not fully covered by insurance/msp
Travel and Accommodation: Allowing Jenn and the kids to remain close to Andrew while he recovers out of town
Loss of Income: Helping offset time away from work for both Andrew and Jenn so they can focus on recovery and family care
Daily Living Costs and Childcare: Ensuring their home and children are supported during this uncertain time
Long-Term Recovery Needs: Including physical therapy, mental health support, and any home modifications Andrew may need
Andrew has a long journey ahead, but with your support, he won’t have to walk it alone. Every donation—no matter the size—will make a meaningful difference to the Diamond family. If you’re unable to give, please consider sharing this fundraiser to help spread the word.
Thank you for keeping Andrew, Jenn, and their family in your thoughts.
