In Memory of Ryan Cottam

Honoring a Loved One: Support NeuRa and Make a Difference

In memory of our friend Ryan Cottam, I have created this page to raise funds for Neuroscience Research Australia (NeuRa).

Ryan was more than just a friend; he was family. His kindness, humor, and intelligence left an indelible mark on everyone who had the privilege of knowing him. I often find myself wondering how he would view the world today, what he'd have to say about the twists and turns life has taken, and how much better our lives would be with his unique perspective and infectious laugh still with us.

There's not a day that goes by without a thought of Ryan. His absence is felt deeply, but his memory continues to live on. Chris I, along with so many others, are grateful for every moment we had with him. We miss you, Ryan, every single day.

Help me celebrate their memory by giving whatever you can. Your donation will support NeuRa's groundbreaking research and make a significant impact in the lives of those affected by brain and nervous system disorders.

Please also help spread the word by sharing my page with your friends and family.

Thank you for your generosity in advance.

Together, we can honor our loved one and contribute to a brighter future.
