Help with Charlie Koch's medical expenses after boating accident

About this campaign

On August 11th our sweet boy Charlie was out on Sutherland Resevior tubing when he fell off the tube. When went to swim up the boat he got his right leg caught in the prop. Kendall and my brother Kyle reacted very quickly to get him out of the water. My other Brother and law Chris tied a rope around his leg to control the bleeding. Charlie was rushed to the hospital with a very large laceration on his upper thigh. The staff at Great Plaines Health felt it as in Charlie’s best interest to be flown to UNMC in Omaha. In Omaha they assessed his injury and took him up to OR and cleaned the wound. They found that he had severed 2 hamstrings and injured the rest. He also he has a severed sciatic nerve. With these injuries he lost feeling in his foot and toes.
He is now undergoing a 10-14 surgery at St Louis Childrens hospital to repair the damage .
Long surgeries are also costly and this was an unexpected event that they were not prepared for. Please open your hearts and become a "Team Charlie" member today to help offset some of the costs
