On July 6, 8-year-old Kaelynne Driscoll was involved in a boating accident on Skaneateles Lake. As a result, she lost her left arm, left leg and suffered major skull and brain trauma.
The doctors have said they have never seen a patient fight so bravely. She is making a miraculous recovery!
All funds collected will go directly to Kaelynne’s mother, Amber Oursler, to help support with bills and her needs through this transition. Amber works for The Tompkins County Youth Advocate Program and is a beloved member of the team as well as an amazing advocate for youth and families in Tompkins County.
