Help for My Sister and Nephew

Donation protected

Hello everyone!  My sister (Danielle) and her youngest son (Gavin) and a family friend were in a terrible car wreck on Tuesday around 4 pm in Montvale, Va.   They all were airlifted  to Roanoke Memorial Hospital.  Currently my sister remains intubated in ICU and Gavin is in the Pedicatric ICU.  The doctors are saying their stays could consist of several weeks.  They were able to stop Danielle's internal bleeding and remove her spleen but they still have several surgeries that need to be done.  As for Gavin, he's now awake but has several broken bones including his arm, lumbar spine, and his skull.  Both of their injuries are serious.  

David, Danielle's husband, has been by their side since the accident occured.  They also have three other children (all boys) that are staying with their grandmother.  They are all very worried about their mom and brother.  

Due to the severity of the accident and the extent of their injuries there are several bills that are going to fall behind since no one is currently working.  They have a long road of recovery ahead of them.  I'm asking for prayers for both of them and our family as we go down this bumpy road.  The least I could do for them is to try and help with some of the expenses that are being incurred from this horrible accident.  If you have money to donate that would be a great help to our family.  If not, I ask that you lift us up in prayer.  

I will update everyone with changes as they happen!
