AeroShell Aerobatic Team Lead Alan Henley was injured July 22nd, the week before Oshkosh in an accident while playing with his children at his home in Birmingham, Alabama. A chin-up bar gave way while he was on it, resulting in a fall which caused severe injuries to his neck and a cut to the back of his head. Alan is now at home after spending more than three months at the University of Alabama at Birmingham’s trauma unit. He has undergone many surgeries and battled collateral infections and complications that resulted from his injury. He is paralyzed from the chest down, and will undergo extensive rehabilitation on a long journey to an uncertain recovery. Insurance has helped cover the tremendous costs of his treatment, but recently the family learned that those benefits may be soon cut off, forcing them to find other means of not only supporting Alan’s rehabilitation and medical care, but daily living expenses as well.
