About UsAs some of you may or may not know, a close family friend of ours, Kyle Kiwi Eade, took a crash while waterski jumping in February in New Zealand. Kyle is from New Zealand but is now green carded in the US. He lives and runs a business in Clermont, Florida. Each year Kiwi, his wife Karyn and two sons, Jaeden (2) and Damien (1), travel to NZ during the month of February to visit family, coach and train for the first pro waterski event of the year which takes place in Australia. Kyle was taking a practice jump and went out the back. It seemed like a typical crash, but this time he landed on the back of his neck and almost immediately lost feeling in his arms and legs. Luckily the crew that Kiwi was skiing with immobilized him and called for help. He was airlifted to the local hospital and diagnosed with a broken C4 and C5 vertebrae along with severe swelling and trauma to the spinal chord. With this type of injury, there is no pre-determined diagnosis for recovery. Kyle spent 8 weeks completely immobilized in one of New Zealand's top spinal facilities, the Burwood Spinal Center. After the 8 weeks, Kyle started rehabilitation. While he is one of the most positive and hard working patients the Burwood Center has ever seen, Kyle has an extremely long road ahead of him. Kyle's injury occurred about an hour flight away from where his parents live in Auckland. Kyle and his family had planned on being in New Zealand for the month of February. By early March, they would return to their life, home and jobs in Florida. Obviously, this plan has changed dramatically. If all goes well, Kiwi will be healing for the next 12 to 18 months. Karyn, Damien and Jaeden are staying in accommodations similar to our Ronald McDonald houses and their apartment type home is located at the Burwood Center. Having his family close is extremely imperative to Kyle's recovery. They also need to establish as much of a normal life as possible for their boys. Kyle is one of the strongest individuals both physically and mentally that we know. He is also one of the nicest and most giving guys you will ever meet. We know he would be one of the first people to step up to help in a situation like this. Kyle has been giving his whole life to the sport of waterskiing: he has been the coach, the judge, the driver, the friend who jumped in and pulled someone out of the water on a crash, the tournament organizer, the best skier of the day, and everything in between. He has been the best dad, the best husband, and the best friend all at the same time. The waterski and wakeboard community has come together with the help of a few of Kyle's friends and put together this online auction. We hope to assist Kyle and his family with the temporary living expenses in New Zealand and maintain their permanent home in Florida. We appreciate your support of the online auction. We hope that you will remember that it is our ultimate goal to raise as much money for Kiwi as possible so please bid high and bid often.
