Help Kayla recover from getting shot

Donation protected


Hello, I’m Kayla, 28 years old. Was working as a Lead 3rd party contractor.  Im sweet, happy, & excited about life. During my vacation before my promotion to become supervisor tragedy struck and I began a battle to fight for my life on the night of my little sisters birthday . 

My family was together and I was leaving with my best friend when a guy started to bother us. Walking up behind taunting, and trying to get our attention when we turned him down. The next word I heard were “I will short and rob y’all bitches”. I began to run, feeling this sharp unfamiliar pain. I see the blood on my hands. 
Calling for my best friend I got shot as she continued on not looking back. I fell in the street crawling in between cars to protect myself because I was now alone. 
The guy walked up and yelled he got one then jumped in a car and drove away.


I was shot in my right cheek and caused damage to my intestines, uterus, and rectum. I now have a colostomy bag and learning how to walk again let alone the mental battle and trauma. Due to injuries I’m out of work and the hospital bills are coming. I’m still not out of the woods as I prepare for my next two surgeries.
