"The fundraiser states they have spent years drawing down savings to cover travel, lodging and other expenses connected to attending court hearings and supporting Clancy.
"It is simply an opportunity to help two parents who have spent more than three years carrying a financial burden on top of an emotional one most of us cannot begin to imagine," the GoFundMe page reads. "At some point, the court proceedings will end. Mike and Paula will still have a life to return to. There will still be bills, a home, lost savings, and years of putting their own lives on hold while they stood beside their daughter."

Well, the money is not going to Lindsay. So if that's what they're implying, it isn't true. The post does not specifically say the money is going to her but the picture is of Lindsay.
No. The GFM is illustrated as being about supporting Clancy. The donations are made explicitly in support of Clancy. The money is being used by the parents for them to show up and support Clancy.
It is being done for Clancy, but worded as being for the parents to get around GFM rules.
Mike and Paula will still have a life to return to. There will still be bills, a home, lost savings, and years of putting their own lives on hold while they stood beside their daughter."
Okay but it's about "lost savings"?
Not about "hey I'm actually in a really desperate situation and can't make ends meet".
Just "I'm not making as much money as I planned to"?
