Donation protected
As many of you have heard, on may 4, 2021 at 11:36 am, our beautiful daughter Eleanor Peterson (Ellie) was involved in a horrific head-on-collision while on her way to work. Taken by life flight to Essentia Health in Duluth MN. Ellie endured multiple injuries: Where she had two emergency surgeries. The first surgery was to repair her L2 where she had a burst fracture (Barely missing her spinal cord.)The second surgery was to repair two lacerations within here small intestines. Eleanor also has a TBI (Traumatic Brain Injury) and various other contusions.
Thankfully by the grace of God miraculously no one was taken from us, but needless to say she has an extremely difficult road ahead of her. Ellie is a bright soul who loves everyone no matter who they are. At the time of the accident Eleanor was a Certified Nursing Assistant at a local Nursing home. She loved every aspect of her job. Especially, the elderly who became more like family member then patients.
Recovery will be a grueling and extremely costly process for Ellie and her family. We are looking to raise funds to meet any type of financial need that may arise. This may include: Assisting with travel expenses (back and forth to rehab, PT/OT and speech Therapy), caring for Ellie at home (Ellie will not be able to work), paying bills, and most certainly paying medical expenses. Any way that you can help meet Ellie/ families financial needs through this difficult time will be gratefully appreciated! Eleanor has a long road ahead of her and any words of encouragement/ love/prayers and support will go along way in helping her recover.
Thank you too everyone who has reached out with prayers and encouragement You are all amazing and we love each and every one of you.
