Aid My Father's Recovery After Car Accident!

Donation protected
In all my years of reading, sharing, and donating to these kinds of Gofundme’s, I never imagined myself being here. I never thought I’d have to make one. 


My family needs your help. Last Monday while my father was driving down the highway, he noticed smoke coming into his car. He tried to stop the car multiple times but the brakes were not working. Before he knew it, flames enveloped the car from the front and back. He again tried to stop the car but the brakes kept him from doing so. The fires grew so large that he had to drive his car into the rail and jump from it, going over 40mph on route 50. Traveling at those speeds, he broke several bones in his spine, and is suffering with deep lacerations and burns. 


Moments later, his car exploded. My father narrowly escaped with his life but now has a long road of recovery ahead of him now being unable to walk. My father lives alone so we (his children) will now have to travel across the country to care for him, and we cannot do it without your assistance. The costs of medical care(!), legal fees(!), all of his bills now that he is unable to work, travel, and basic needs for survival are all too much a financial burden on us. We ask that you please give ANYTHING that you can, no amount is too small. We ask that if you are not in a place to give monetarily, that you give some of your time by sharing this link with everyone you can. Lastly we ask that you keep us lifted in your thoughts as this is a very difficult and unbelievable time. 



Thank you for being here, thank you for taking the time.  We truly appreciate you.
