Help Antoinette’s family recover from a traumatic crash

Donation protected


My name is Antoinette cannon I am a young mom of 3 wonderful babies: 2, 4, 9 years old. On Wednesday we were one of the 23 cars involved in the car pile up on i25 due to a dust storm. My kids are my world and they gave me the strength to pick myself up and climb out the passenger door.
It was a dust storm I couldn’t see anything so I knew I had to pull over and just at the same time we just slammed into the car pile up. I checked on my kids they were all ok crying but ok. The girls were freaking out cuz I had blood everywhere. There was gas leaking down by my feet. I knew I had to get my babies out. I called 911 and they said to exit NOW! I didn’t know how bad I was hurt because I had blood everywhere. I rolled down my passenger window and I was just waving and some man angel seen me he pulled over and ran to us I said “sir there’s gas leaking out by my feet idk if I can move idk how bad I’m hurt but PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE get my kids out and get them to safety”. He got them out and he said ma’am I don’t want to leave you he tried opening my driver door but it was so jammed so he said can you crawl over to the passenger side? I told him idk but I’m going to give it my all!!! And I toughened through that climbed over, grabbed baby’s bag grabbed my wallet and picked up baby and the man was holding the girls and we ran across the road to his van. We had to get taken to the hospital by ambulance. All my kids have are burns from the seatbelts I have stitches in my left hand. My knees went into my dash beneath the steering wheel so they’re cut up and bruised. I have a hairline crack in my left hip. But out of it all I’m so blessed my kids are all up and running around by the next day and god allowed them to still have me as their mommy. My vehicle is totaled so we’re needing any type of donations to help us get a new vehicle. In addition the funds raised will help us pay amounting bills while I am out of work recovering. We commute every day for work and school. I want to thank everyone for their prayers and faith to get us through. Any donation is GREATLY appreciated.
