Dan Mestas Recovery Funds

Dear Friends and Family,

I am organizing this fundraiser on behalf of Dan and Mariam Mestas. On Tuesday, March 12, 2024, Dan was on a camping trip in Oklahoma with a friend (Jameson) and their families. During an outing driving his RZR (SxS), it tipped over on the driver's side and pinned his left arm under the roll bar behind the driver's seat. He was bleeding profusely from a compound fracture of both his radius and ulna. After Jameson lifted the vehicle off his arm, they applied a tourniquet to Dan's upper arm and called 911. The two men and four kids hiked about two miles to the road to meet the ambulance. Dan was then flown to OU Medical Center and taken into emergency surgery overnight where they placed rods and pins to secure the bones, reconstructed arteries, and repaired muscles.

There is a tremendous risk that these repairs will not work, and the possibility of amputation is still high. He has been in the hospital since the accident and has completed three surgeries so far. Mariam has been traveling back and forth from Dallas to Oklahoma City every day, and between these, their costs are becoming very high. We are asking that you donate to help them with these unforeseen circumstances so that Dan can focus on healing without the added stress of bills (All proceeds go to Dan and Mariam). We send huge thanks to all who are helping, from prayers and good wishes, to watching their kids, and those who will continue to help them. We are truly grateful for all of you!

Love Ryan and Dalie Mestas
