Help Ana Murphy Reclaim Her Independence!

Hi, my name is Gwen, and I am fundraising for Ana Murphy, a 22-year-old nursing student in Wilmington, North Carolina who on August 5th, 2023, suffered a blunt neck injury following an accident on a water slide. She suffered damage to her spinal cord from C3-C6, requiring two surgeries, a week in ICU, partial paralysis to the right side of her body, and a long road to recovery.

Exciting news came to Ana and her family this week when she was accepted to the Shepherd Center, a premiere rehabilitation facility in Atlanta, Georgia, that specializes in spinal cord injury. The cost to transport is from $12,000 to $21,000. Let's come together as a community to make a tangible difference in Ana's life. No contribution is too small, and any amount you can give will be incredibly appreciated. Moreover, please consider sharing Ana's GoFundMe within your own social media circles. Your generosity can ease the financial burdens that come with Ana's medical expenses, transport to Atlanta, necessary accommodations, and prolonged rehabilitation. Let's get Ana back on the path to reclaiming her independence and continuing her nursing studies!

For those of us who know Ana, her vibrant spirit and determination have always shone through, both in her personal life and as she pursued her dreams in the nursing field. I believe together we can empower her with prayers, love, encouragement, and the financial support she needs to overcome this hurdle and thrive again.

Thank you! Let's do this!
