Help for Tammy and Mark After A Life-Changing Car Accident

Tammy and Mark Graziani's lives were forever changed on March 12, 2025, after a head-on car crash while returning from a family ski trip in Whistler, Canada. Tammy suffered catastrophic spinal injuries and is now in intensive rehabilitation, fighting to regain movement in her hands and legs, working tirelessly towards her goal of walking again. Mark, who also sustained serious injuries, has remained by her side every step of the way.

As they face months, if not years, of recovery, medical costs, home and automative modifications, and time away from work, we are rallying around them to help ease the financial burden. Your support will provide critical funding for physical therapy, housing near the hospital, uncovered medical expenses, and daily essentials. Please consider donating and sharing their story. Additional details are below.

On March 12, Mark and Tammy Graziani's family was riding to the Vancouver airport when their sprinter van was struck head-on in a highway collision, seriously injuring them, Mark's parents and uncle, and their close family friends. Tammy suffered the most catastrophic injuries—a broken neck and spine—and was rushed into emergency surgery and placed on life support.

In those first days, she couldn't breathe on her own. Doctors worked to stabilize her spine, bolt her vertebrae, and manage the immense trauma. Tammy was kept heavily sedated and in critical condition. Mark, also seriously injured with a crushed leg, a broken and dislocated jaw, and a metal plate in his skull, stayed by her side every moment. It was unclear if Tammy would survive.

Tammy is now awake and has continued to improve each day, shocking her medical team with the rapid nature of her improvement—from breathing on her own, to moving her arms, and even feeding herself. Now stable, she was able to repatriate to Boston with Mark via air ambulance on April 1st. Tammy's road to recovery will take years of physical and occupational therapy and intensive support, but her spirit is incredibly strong, and she is determined. Her infectious personality and amazing sense of humor are intact, and despite the unfair hand she's been dealt, she's rarely ever without a smile on her face.

Mark and Tammy are both unable to work for the time being. Between housing near the hospital, uncovered medical costs, and long-term rehab, the financial burden is immense. Mark has made it clear: he will do whatever it takes to get Tammy the help she needs.

This GoFundMe intends to make that possible. For those who know Tammy and Mark, they are two of the most generous, kind, and fun people. Their relationship is one filled with laughter and adventure. They are constant providers of love and support for their friends and family. Now it’s our turn to lift them up. Your donation will help Tammy get the care she needs—and give Mark the support he needs to stay by her side on his own healing journey.
