Angelina Young's Medical and Transport Expenses
Donation protected
I'm raising funds for my friend Cassie Talley, a fellow Reservist in the Air Force, and her daughter Angelina. Angelina went on a trip to Jamaica with her dad to attend a friend's wedding. On July 11th, they went for dinner at Rick's Cafe: a restaurant, pool, bar, and cliff jumping spot. Nina jumped. She didn't get out of the water.
She was rushed to a small hospital in a rural area in Jamaica. They didn't have a CT or MRI machine at the facility. It took 24 hours to get the CT at another facility. There's no MRI. Angelina has an unstable lumbar fracture; her back is broken. Things in Jamaica are not moving quickly. "Bed days" are piling up. She's supposed to transfer to a hospital closer to an airfield. But seems to be stuck at the first facility. She has to go in a helicopter because her back is very unstable. Then she has to get medevac'd to Miami for surgery. Insurance will only cover a small portion of some of the hospital bills. We don't know how long she'll be in the hospital in Miami. Cassie and Nina's dad need hotel rooms and meals.
Please consider donating to help pay for her medical expenses. Angelina's mom and dad should focus on taking care of their daughter and not have to worry about taking a loan out against their home. Cassie also has a Venmo account if you want to donate directly.
