Supporting a family
Hello everyone.
We are trying to raise awareness and show support regarding a very tragic accident that happened to one of our relatives. She is a sweet little 10 year old girl named Yester and is currently fighting for her life at USC hospital’s Intensive Care Unit. Yester's mother, Susanna Hovakimyan is a single mother working at 2 jobs trying to support Yester and her 2 siblings. Unfortunately, Yester's biological father is not capable of supporting them so therefore you can imagine the amount of load that Susanna carries on her shoulders to support her family especially now that she has to be a full time caregiver for her daughter as she requires a lifelong support. Please consider helping this family as Yester's medical and other costs are rising tremendously.
Please read the following message from Officer Meghedi Badall who was one of the first responders to this tragedy.
...........Hi everyone,
“I'd like to ask everyone to please consider helping a family in need.
On Saturday (1/23), at about 3PM, several of us responded to a call of a 10 year old girl (Yester) who had fallen out of a 3rd story apartment window. As you can all imagine, the girl was severely injured, laying in a pool of blood and struggling to breathe. This was a horrible scene, but what made it worse was seeing the twin brother of the little girl standing there as everyone tried to help his sister. This little boy was amazing! Most of his family members are deaf and the little boy did all of the translating for us. I was so proud of him for being able to keep his composure and not cry during such a difficult time. He was somehow able to do something most of us wouldn’t have been able to do.
Glendale Fire transported Yester to LA County USC, where she underwent several lifesaving surgeries. Miraculously, Yester is alive but is in seriously critical condition. If she is somehow able to pull through, we won’t know for months the extent of her life-altering injuries.
After speaking with family members, we learned the little girl had been apart from her family for two years and was recently reunited with them only 3 months ago. Even though her mother is deaf, she washes dishes in two different restaurants to support her family. They don't receive any sort of financial assistance from the government and now with Yester being in the hospital, her mother is staying by her side 24/7.
Unfortunately, Yester’s biological father is in Armenia and does not financially support the family whatsoever. Any support we can provide to this family would be amazing. Every dollar counts, as there are so many associated expenses to this unfortunate tragedy, and I know they would really appreciate it. Yester's family is very supportive of law enforcement and couldn’t stop thanking us for everything we did for them that evening.
Please keep Yester and her family in your prayers. Please share it with as many people and organizations as you can.”
All your prayers and donations will be grately appreciated.
Thank you and God Bless!
