Help Hussien Ali and Family After Tragic Accident

Donation protected
Hussien Ali is in critical condition after being hit by a passing vehicle while trying to enter his car parked on the side of the street. We ask everyone to pray for him and his family and donate anything you can to help the family with medical bills and legal fees.

On Monday, November 7, at approximately 5:40 PM, Hussien stepped out of the house where he currently resides, Meridian Ave San Jose, CA, on the black 3000, and decided to get something from his car. While trying to enter his car, he was struck by a passing SUV. Since he was found unresponsive with house cloth and no Identification, officers could not immediately locate his immediate family members. As a result, unfortunately, since his side of the story was not heard, the report concluded the accident as a pedestrian hit by oncoming traffic while crossing outside of the marked crosswalk.

Hussien is currently fighting for his life after a long and complicated surgery at a Valley Medical Hospital surgical ICU in San Jose, CA. He was found with a severe head injury. His procedure includes craniotomy, removing part of the skull to expose the brain. While the family strongly believes Hussien is strong and will overcome this, we also know the recovery will take time and patience.

Hussien is a dedicated husband and father of two kids. Before moving to the US in June of 2011, he lived in the city of Bahir Dar in Ethiopia, where he worked as an RN (Registered Nurse) and had 30 years of experience.

After arriving in the US, he worked as a nurse assistant for over ten years while also attending school to advance his education and meet the US requirement to continue his passion for helping people as an RN. He finally achieved his dream for the second time, passed all the requirements, and received his license for RN.
Unfortunately, due to the specific requirements in different states, he could not find a job in Seattle, WA, where his family resides. After applying in multiple places, he temporarily moved to San Jose, CA, where he landed a job for more experience. He has been working at White Blossom Care Center in San Jose, CA, for the past few months.
The family thanks you in advance and ask you to keep Hussien in your thoughts and prayers. We are also asking you to forgive us if you encounter this, and you know Hussien. The family hopes you understand, as we are all still in shock.
